At KiwiStart Homes we know the reason for adding a minor dwelling to your existing property is unique to you.

• Create an additional income stream
• Accommodate extended family
• A luxury guesthouse
• A superb studio
• Give your adult kids independence while they save for their first home
• Increase capital growth

Whatever your reasons, a minor dwelling can make for an excellent investment opportunity. However, there are lots of considerations before you begin.

• Will it be completely separate from the main residence?
• Could you convert an existing space into a small home within the home?
• What are the maximum square metres allowed?

KiwiStart Homes will help you understand what you can and can’t do and how to make the most of your investment. If you have an idea you want to explore we would love to help create a custom space that meets your needs, or head to our Home Designs and take a look at our 1 bedroom starter plan.
