Hello all, thought I’d create a blog of my first subdivision also my first blog on PC so go easy. Ok so the house is in LCC corner block with an existing highest brick home with a pool, house is positioned to the back corner so I have two options. Option 1, create one new 700m2 block and leave existing block as 1200m2 maintaining street apeal for both houses as the both have street access. Option 2, create 700m2 block and also create a 2nd new lot at 400m2 thus turning existing house into a battle axe on 800m2. So 1 into 3 Any opinions advice will be greatly appreciated as I am new to the process and have only done research online and advice from my planner. Also for those that have undergone previous maybe similar subdivisions an insight on costs. Thanks
My thoughts: Step 1 - Talk to a real estate agent to find out roughly what the end product of the options are likely to be; Step 2 - Talk to your town planner to find out roughly what the subdivision costs for each option will be. Also make sure that you can subdivide as per the above; Step 3 - Do a feaso on each option; Step 4 - Choose the most profitable.
Any opportunities for a duplex on one of the sites that you could sep title using a building format plan later on (no DA needed)
Thanks for the reply’s! Have proceeded with 1-3 700m2 will be compliant with duplex. Going through application process with my planner at the moment hopefully have Da in 6-8 weeks. Have spoken to local agent and a duplex site is going to be quite profitable and should be an easy sell. I’ll update after I get that red stamp
what suburb is it? Inbox me if you like as I have some experience in the area and pretty familiar with LCC rules So you have a 1900m2 corner block? and whats the zoning and the dimensions
Hey all so now have DA moving ahead with operational works permit hopefully 3-4 weeks for approval. First block has been approved for overhead direct power which is good saves on time /money, very minimum drainage/water/sewer work needed. Hopeing to have first block titled and sold within 3-4 months
Hey, just wondering, how much did it cost you all up to get this DA in Logan? Only if you don't mind me asking of course. thanks
Hey Da cost around $12,000 Subdivision costs Townplanner/surevyor Council fees Stormwater management Prelim engineer drawings
Would you mind shooting me a PM with some details on the land? My business partner is a builder and loves to work with agents on these infill's- i.e. propose a build that the agent can sell with the land if he feels it will add value to that particular buyer.
Hey i am new in this forum would love to hear form some that has been approved for subdivision in shailer park (Logan Council) we have purchased an investment property 3 years ago 1200sqm corner block and would love to add another house on the block , we have been advised last year that a few new rules have come into place that some areas in shailer park cannot be subdivided any longer..... has anyone else had the same issue, i really dont want to pay for lodging a requested and then to be told no permit and lose my money..... dose anyone have some good advice on how to approach this the right way... is it possible
Hey mate jump on Logan interactive mapping and have a look what your house is zoned as I know there is large suburban and suburban in Shailer Park each have different requirements. Once you find out go onto Logan city council website and type in reconfigure lot in search bar and you’ll find the information relating to your zoning
