SUBDIVIDE & BUILD

Thinking of subdividing?

Having a subdividable piece of land is an incredible asset! Create income for you while helping ease the housing shortage. We take care of virtually every aspect of your sub development project, right from the site evaluations and design through to consents and construction.

Sometimes it’s hard to visualise the potential and approach of your subdivided land which is why it helps to chat to experts who’ve done it many times before. What’s the cost to subdivide? What’s the minimum size of land to do it? And what does the process look like? We answer all those questions and many more.

Having Sentinel owned by a husband / wife team also felt like you got that extra bit of care as a family owned business. The quality and finish of the home is great. We knew we'd get a quality build from Sentinel and they didn't disappoint!
