Why don’t you recommend type and size of development ?

Our assessment report was designed to quickly identify any obvious restrictions affecting the plausibility of a development. In order to discover type and scale of developments achievable on a particular property a Property Development Feasibility is required. This often is a logical next step. You can order Property Development Feasibility on our website.

How is the report created ?

We obtain relevant information about the property from local government agencies and service providers. Most of the information we can receive quickly through various online channels. The data is then compiled and reviewed by us to ascertain the level of plausible development on the property.

Why do you include a copy of title ?

Property title will list any encumbrances, caveats, covenants, agreements or notices attached to the property. Anyone of these may prevent or restrict the property from being developed. Some may be removed if required. It is important to identify what they are before deciding if the property is a good fit for your type of development.

Why do I need to know about location of utility services ?

Location of services in and around the property may affect plausibility of development and its development costs. Some developments may require changes to current services or provision of a new service not currently available. Understanding what these are and their effect on your development may be a deciding factor if you proceed with or dismiss the property.

How planning zones & overlays affect my development ?

Local council planning zones and overlays/layers will dictate rules and regulations vital for consideration when deciding on a property for development. They can include but not limited to, maximum building heights, number of dwelling, minimum lot size, set back from boundaries, car parking requirements, minimum permeability, heritage requirements, etc. Some of these rules may not allow you to achieve your desired development. Others may allow for greater opportunities then you initially thought.

I am not sure what to do next ?

Just because a property can be developed it does not mean that it should. The development needs to satisfy your goals. Not all developable properties will return a result you may be seeking. Please contact us to discuss your particular development goals and how the property you selected could satisfy them.
