    Even though my purchase has already settled, I've decided to keep this thread going for anyone who would like to post any relevant info on the area. The Kalamunda Shire has announced that planning for a new Urban Centre developed around the proposed terminus of the Forrestfield Airport Link has...

    Thanks for the relevant info, always welcomed. IMO, the airport link project is not just to cater for the FIFO market as the article suggests, it's just a basic progression of Perth's development - A train link to the airport and south-eastern suburbs.

    Building and pest report Have got my building and pest report back. Nothing major but seems there is a lot of recommendations of re-sealing in the bathroom and the kitchen which is something I definitely want to get done straight away as I don't want to deal with any future major plumbing...

    Building and pest to being done this week... I ended up using www.tbiwa.com.au because I had already seen one of their reports which had pointed out a lot of flaws on a property. Quoted $440 for both.

    Tano, I only just realized you said that you were already building on the back of your block, is this your property in High Wycombe? Also from my very basic knowledge in regards to subdivision, is the fact that you're doing it before the rezoning has gone through a regular thing to do?

    To you local Perth guys - D.T, Tano, Westminster, HDACE etc - Do you have a building inspector that you trust and does a thorough job with a detailed report? Obviously the REA has recommended one but I'd rather get someone independent.

    With your experience in development what are your first thoughts on the property in regards to subdividing the back into a battle-axe block if it got the proposed r20/r40 zoning?

    Yeah a couple of things that stood out with this place were the fact that it could be r20/r40 and it's got at least 4 meters between eaves and boundary of property on the driveway. The house is pretty tired but definitely livable. Here's some quick pictures I took whilst inside today. I can...
