Evaluating Costs
Despite the fact that the costs involved with subdividing a site can be significant, it is worth keeping in mind that the intended outcome of subdivision is usually to add considerable value to the property. So even though an initial outlay is required, the increased equity generated by the process generally far out weighs the investment required. In some cases, the project costs can also be further offset by renting out the existing property to generate income throughout the subdivision process. If you’re considering subdividing, it’s imperative to have access to accurate and reliable data so a thorough evaluation can be made of all the expected costs involved as well as the likely profit to be generated.
