Anyone who has bought houses with granny flats attached may be able to help me with the following:
1. How are such properties handled when it comes to rates, water usage etc? Would both house and flat normally be on separate titles?
2. Do I have to separately insure them, seeing as I'm getting two lots of tenants?
3. How do you handle the backyard space? ie; how much of it each tenant is entitled to? ( seems silly I know but surely both parties would be entitled to separate space?)
Going into this with no prior experience of this type of property. Any advice appreciated. Thanks all!
Cheers, Jacque
