Property investors understand how important a sense of community is to home buyers. When planning a new development, this is a major consideration for the investors. A subdivision offers a planned community where families will live and raise their children. Reviewing details about investing in a planned community helps the investor get further insight into the venture.
Finding and Purchasing the Land for the Subdivision
Finding and purchasing the land for the subdivision requires a geo study for the land and potentially a land clearing project. The investor must determine if the topography of the area presents any hazards for the construction project. None of the lots can lead to serious flooding or instability for the properties constructed in the subdivision. It must also provide adequate sewage and waste removal opportunities. When reviewing lots for a subdivision these are the preliminary factors that are considered.
How Large Are the Lots?
The overall dimensions of the proposed lots define what dimensions each property can have. It is vital for the investor and their developers to get accurate dimensions for the lots and present the measurements to potential buyers. The distance between each house is another factor that should be considered. In planned communities, the homes are situated close together with limited space between. These details are presented to potential buyers, too. When creating documents for potential buyers, all details about the size of the lots and what they give the buyers should be presented accurately.
Are There Restrictions on the Floor Plans?
In planned communities, it is common to restrict the floor plans to a small collection of options. This is necessary to prevent the buyers from choosing a floor plan that won’t fit within the dimensions of the purchased lot. Modifications are made to the interior space to offer features that the home buyer might want. However, it is vital for the investor to make a decision about what floor plans are available for their planned community and what changes will not increase the total cost of the construction.
How Will the Homeowner’s Association Operate?
In all planned communities, a homeowner’s association manages the community and make decisions about what is allowed. All homeowners have a chance to participate and discuss grievances they have. The community works together to make decisions about structural changes outside their properties and any issues that affect all homeowners. Investors must consider the pros and cons of a planned community based on the need for a homeowner’s association.
What is the Potential Return on the Investment?
The potential return on investment is based on the demand for housing in a subdivision. The unit price for each property is based on the price of the lot and the property built on it. The cost for each floor plan determines how much the investor receives when the properties are purchased.
