ah so that's what townplanners do? I'll have to do the first one with a townplanner then. Hi RPI, I know you mentioned 20m frontage, but am going to look at this one today. http://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-qld-salisbury-116088335

Hi guys Fair enough, doesn't sound like i'll get much luck here ;) oh well worth a shot! I wasn't really looking for a "where to buy", more so some basics. I'll give some people a call and see if I can work my way around it. I'm seeing places come up for sale as a consequence of a subdivision...

Hi All, I was hoping to get some advice as to how to go about subdividing in Brisbane. I'm a first timer and wanted to give it a go as I'm also looking for a place to live. So essentially what I'm hoping for is to find a house with land big enough to subdivide without knocking down the...
