I know this subject has been raised many times already but I just cant seem to find specific answers on how to do it.
Does anyone own dual occupancy IP which are on single titles? Whether this be a house with 2 areas seperated by a wall, a granny flat, a flat under the house or any other configuration which results in 2 unrelated sets of tennants paying 2 sets of rent.
How do you manage the seperate metering of electricity and water, also 2 sets of garbage disposal and 2 letter boxes (does this get council curious?).
I'm specifically interested in QLD in this instance (though experiences with other states are invited).
Speaking with PM's indicates this is a very common occurance. However, most discussions at SS seem to focus on negatives of insurance and council approvals.
While these concerns are legitimate they are already well discussed and I would really like to hear from people who are actually doing this - especially if they have any thoughts on ways of managing such concerns (eg fire walls for insurance purposes - I've been quoted at $150 p/m2 to erect internally, or www.prepaidmeters.com.au for assistance with metering).
