As in title im looking at purchasing land (or house which i will demolish) within the blacktown council area with the intention of building a duplex.
From the DCP i found that a duplex can be built through dual occupancy with a land over 400m2. I will be looking at properties 600-700m2.
Anyway on the DCP it mentioned i cannot subdivide a dual occupancy through torrens, strata or community title. I went and confirmed this with the town planner at blacktown council today who told me i can build a duplex but wont be able to sell them individually. The only advice he said was to speak to a conveyancer. Before i do that i thought i may get ideas of here in regard to anyone that may have built and sold duplexes within blacktown council and how they went through it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Worst come worst i will have stay clear of blacktown council and move towards areas in penrith council (of which i spoke to a town planner today and everything seemed straight fowards)
