They have some ambitious plans at Stirling, which will be great if/when they get off the ground. They are significantly short on [human] resources though, with even simple DA's taking minimum 28 days to even be allocated to a planner
Speaking of plans such as this, albeit smaller scale, how much value do you think is in buying a house in an outer area (>50km from CBD) with no amenities (local shops, school, cafe etc), knowing that an entire town centre (shops, school, cafes etc) is planned and will be developed within a couple years. Is the actual development of the town centre likely to result in a spike in CG? Or because it's been planned for a while and is public knowledge, has that ship sailed?
Cheers
butler works for me, becaus eof upcoming freeway access and train to joondalup.
yanchep same but again, delays in infrastructure. planned, but when?
dunno if the ship has sailed, getting in now ensures better buying imo.
afa spearwood is concerned, cockburn are reasonably progressive. their ADPs allow for better application of the codes (averaging boundary wall lenght across all boundaries, 40% open space* etc) and spearwood has R60 zonings so you can capitalise on the heights for a better looking development, even if you only do 2 storey.
the closer you get to that magic 12x number of apts without going over, the better it all becomes.
