Design Subdivide & Build

Design Subdivide & Build

Dual occupancy / Multi Unit designsand planning permits. "I want to develop my property... but how do I get started?" Whether you're considering adual occupancy in the backyard, a brand new duplex, or four townhouses on a clear site, Design Subdivide & Build will help get your project off the ground. Design Subdivide & Build helps clients develop their land by: 1.) Formulating site tailored designs (single homesand multi-units) 2.) Obtaining TownPlanning permits from local council 3.) Assisting in the appointment of a competentand reliable builder Some common questions when considering adual occupancy or multi unit project are: What is the maximum volume of construction allowable on the land? Are there restrictions on the land? such as: minimum lot sizes, overlays, zoningand covenants. Can trees which are inhibiting the building envelope be removed? Can approval be obtained for a second driveway/crossover? Can power poles, nature strip trees, storm water drains etc be removed to make way for a second or additional driveway/crossover? How many,and what type of units should be built? Can adequate services be provided to the new unit(s), such as: electricity, gas, water, sewerageand storm water. How do I obtain the "legal point of discharge", or LPD, for my property? When should I engage a surveyor, aroborist or engineer? When should I engage a designer, architect or town planner? What other costs are involved, apart from construction? How much will it cost to obtain plansand permits, before I start building? How much will it cost to demolish the existing structures on my land? DSB's work is split into 3 Stages. The above critical questions are addressed in Stage 1, the "Preliminary Feasibility Report".
