If you own a large block of land and want to increase your wealth, consider a subdivision.
Subdivisions are an excellent way to turn vacant and unused spaces into profitable areas of property.
Even if you don’t sell the properties, you’ll build a strong portfolio for when you retire or have the option of renting them out as another income stream. Before you choose to subdivide, it’s worth understanding the benefits of doing so and how it works.
Subdividing involves taking a block of land that one person owns and building one or more properties on it. There are certain categories of people who stand to benefit the most:
In short, if the local real estate market indicates that you’ll successfully sell the property you subdivide, it might be worth investigating.
The first and most obvious benefit is the ability to make a profit. Providing you plan your project with an experienced conveyancer, you can build a high-value property and sell it on for a profit. Alternatively, there’s the opportunity to rent and enjoy an ongoing rental yield.
Other scenarios where subdividing works well include:
If you want a home for your children or an elderly relative to live in, using your own land is convenient.
Areas with a dense population can often benefit from additional living spaces.
From running a bed and breakfast to offering holiday lets, this option works especially well in areas that tourists frequent.
If your current property doesn’t meet your living requirements but may do so again one day, having another one to live in becomes advantageous.
Whatever your aims are for your subdivision project, it’s wise to discuss their feasibility with a professional conveyancer.
It’s worth noting that a subdivision isn’t for everyone. If you aren’t able to meet the financial outlay, the project could prove stressful.
