So you want to maximise the amount of land on your property… What you might not know is that not every parcel of land is suitable for construction. Factors like soil type, zoning and land titles can determine what you can do with that land. Engaging a surveyor is essential, as it gives you more clarity in how you can maximise your land. This will map out your block in great detail, providing a clear understanding of your boundaries, access points to roads and easement locations that will all impact on your design.
