Question re: Dual occupancy

Does there need to be some sort of council approval for dual occupancy?

with something like this: 29 Panorama Drive Currumbin Qld 4223 - House for Sale #120096101 - realestate.com.au

Could you rent it out to two tenants and one business?

If approvals are needed, how hard would it be? I only ask because I have been told that dual occupancy can be a better return than single.

 

I'm looking at something a a bit more standard:

43 Hillary Drive Warner Qld 4500 - House for Sale #121321154 - realestate.com.au

15 Norgay Court Warner Qld 4500 - House for Sale #121415806 - realestate.com.au

I understand that some councils and local covenants might be an issue, but if you can find evidence of existing duplexes in the area, I presume the council would generally be ok.

 

All councils are different, but if you're looking to lease to a business I would suggest that yes, council approval would be required.

On a completely separate note, that house is just gorgeous. I love it. (Aside from the bits that obviously need renovating).

 

Yeah I could happily live there . Just beautiful, but if I lived there it would just be single occupancy, we wouldn't have any tenants

 

53 squares. That's a lot of vacuuming...
