Building blocks
In part three of NZ Property Investor’s four-part guide to development, our journalist discovers the crucial things you need to consider at the build stage of your development project.
The build can be a heady time for any investor, let alone a novice. It is the time when all the conceptual plans come to life, when the dream becomes reality.
In reality, very few development projects unfold over a strictly linear time line.
Often some components of the physical build will have been carried out during the consent process, for example. Others will have been underway from the beginning.
However, a number of the different elements involved in a development make up the physical build stage.
To that end, in the third instalment of our beginner’s guide to development we cover geotech issues, engineering, architectural design, managing the build, working with a building company, and selecting tradies.
