Develop design work
Resource Consent:
Resource Management Act requires your new build design or extension or even sub division to conform to the guideline set down by the RMA and District plan. These cover such issues as in protecting open space areas, Land use rights, Fire issues and other such issues that may impede a project.
Building Consent:
This is a full and comprehensive set of documents / specification / Bracing information and calculations required by your local council.
Failed L.I.M reports & RMA issues:
On occasions new home buyers or investment property buyers will buy property that has failed the Council requirements. These could be as simple as illegal structures such as extensions, new bathrooms that have not been consented & need to be registered with Council prior to a buyer purchasing the property.
Face it, designing and building a home, office or investment property can be extraordinarily complex. Few appreciate how difficult it can be. Arriving at the right design, navigating the town planning process and conforming to the RMA and district plans, setting a realistic budget, selecting materials, finding the right builder and managing the building contract, are just some of the tasks you will need to involve yourself with, intimately, if you decide to do it alone.
Building a new home or extending your house is likely to be the biggest single expenditure you are ever going to make. It is a major investment, and what you want from any investment is value and the knowledge that the value of your investment - your investment in good design - grows and continues to grow. Expenditure of such magnitude should not be considered without first getting the best advice you can. Well-designed buildings work efficiently.
