Maximising development returns

In the final instalment of NZ Property Investor’s four-part guide to development, our journalist explores the post-build options.

Completion of a development is always an exhilarating feeling. Even for seasoned developers seeing the end product of all their hard work is equal parts elation and relief.

Once the sensation of heady triumph settles, it is time to embark on the final stage of the project.

This is when an investor gets to see returns on the fruits of their labour - whether it be via selling for immediate profit and increased cash flow, or holding to benefit from rental returns and capital growth.

However, with each option, there are methods and tactics that can be used to maximise returns and get the most out of an investment.

To that end, in the final part of our beginners guide to development we discuss best practice for both holding and renting or selling newly developed properties.
