What is a site appraisal?

A site appraisal is the evaluation of a site or section from a building perspective. It helps to provide an understanding of your site, the constraints and the opportunities. Watch our video below to experience our site appraisal process.

What does a site appraisal contain?

On site, we will help you assess the following as all may incur hidden building costs if not reviewed from the start.

  • What access is like to the site.
  • If the section has any slope, contour or obstacle issues.
  • If there are services connected to the site or if these need to be installed.
  • How the site captures the sun and the best position for your house.
  • If any excavations, ground-works or consents are required.
  • How you could bring your design ideas and dreams to life.

When is the right time to get a site appraisal?

Before buying land

If you are looking to buy land, you need a site appraisal BEFORE making an offer, to avoid making any decisions that could cost you down the track.

Building on a section you already own

We recommend seeking a site appraisal before you start looking at house plans. Our New Home Consultants can help you explore possibilities and identify any challenges unique to your site.

Subdividing an existing property

A site appraisal can guide you on making the most of your section and building your dream home within your budget.
