Thanks for your reply, I think the same way with the funding issue, so my plan is: 1. Get the land that I desire first, 2. Get the council approval, 3. Test the plan with many builders or see if the option of me building it is possible, if the price is too dear to build by my own funds...

Yeah mate, it is so expensive now in the inner west, also don't even need to mention, the inner city. These area have great number of population but I just can not afford to buy one in such area. But from my point of view if I can get approval for a new boarding house in the west where has...

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me :)

Hi thanks for your reply, :) I intend to buy one for l investment purpose. Yeah when I got in contact with the agent I already think the price is too dear, return is too low, but I'm looking at whether there is possibility to extend the building to a double storey, also, I had asked the...

as far as i know In nsw, you can not have more then 4 unrelated individual live together if they all pay rent to you. such activity will be classified as illegal boarding house or guest house. It is better to check with local council because they might have a different regulation...

Hi everyone, Thanks for your help on my previous post. The DA for the belmore house is ceased. Reason is that the land won't qualify for the bonus of fsr incentive. Which I will only be able to build 170sqm of gfa. Not wise to go ahead. I now gathered $650000 cash for this boarding...

Yeah, I agree, will avoid underground car parking. With the set back regulation blank on boarding houses, we could take some advantage on that and make the car parking all set on the front. That's just my guess, will know when I talk to the town planner. :)

Went to council today, spoke to a town planner. So far so good. :) Fsr: according to the planner, my land should be 1:1 which is really good Height limit: 8.5 meters max, means do blue storey is possible Set back: no regulation sets the standard for boarding house yet, which means...

This one is sold three, four month ago, and agent refuse to tell the sold price, which is understandable. Two storey floor plan, with 4 car parking space under ground. Two buildings permitted, each has 7 or 8 self contained studios. The construction cost approx 1.8 million. Does any one know...

Yep, they are town planners, and they have architects who can do design works etc, and they also do DA. Seems legit, any comments on them Scott? Thanks :D

True, good idea bro. Thanks for that, might ring them lunch time

Thanks mate, Yeah, it is near manly, a pretty good location as well, but the land + DA would sell for 1m+ at least. If there are more interests on it, could be 1.5, who Knows these days? If I buy the land, I won't have enough to build.

Thanks lol Scott, I might have typed the wrong web address The web address is councilapproval.com.au Hmm, I thought about it, I did seem a bit rush.... I'll have a look online see what others have. With the one that I chated to, they claim that they have staffs that worked at local...

Got in contact with a company with the web address: council experts.com.au Seems like real professional. Any one used their service before? They do plan design/ architech design and help on getting da approval I have been asked to pay $880 for a assessment work to be done, before they...

Thanks a lot guys, very useful information. For sure I would want to get a fixed price construction contract, have to see who I can use? Been to home world in kellyville, most of the builder said they can build if I have a approved plan, but I have a impression that they will be the expensive...

Thanks a lot for your reply Not quite sure what QS report means, googled "QS report" came up different answers, mind if you could explain a little? :P thanks The loan amount is not a sure thing right now, as it depends on the plan,(numbers of room, facility) but I estimate it would be...
