Airspace Development: Building Upwards

For owners who want more value from the same footprint

Airspace development means adding one or more storeys to an existing building to create new homes to sell or let, using the space above the roof rather than buying more land. This book explains why the strategy exists and who it genuinely suits, and it is straight with you that upward development is one of the least forgiving strategies to attempt alone. It helps you judge honestly whether it fits your resources and temperament, then sets out the five moving parts of an airspace scheme in plain terms. You will see what you genuinely need to begin, which barriers beginners misjudge in both directions, and a step-by-step plan for your first twelve months towards a consented, fundable scheme. A chapter on the mistakes that cost beginners the most shows where schemes go wrong, and the book ends with the viability question you must answer next. Next in this series: “Airspace Viability”.
