Hey everyone!
After months of reading old posts I have finally signed up to post my first thread!
I am at the early stages of finding an investment property. I have a partner who is a builder so we are looking to find an old house (close to knock down) on a big block (700m2+) 15kms within Perth city that has R20- R30 zoning. I have researched the basic path I should follow to do this but there is one main thing that is confusing me.
With the WAPC and local council building acts and regs, plus subdivision development control plans, how are you meant to find a property that meets all of these provisions? I fear buying a property with the intention to subdivide or build triplax/ duplex on, to find out down the track that although it suits the WAPC regs it does not comply with the local council.
Are some councils regs the same as the WAPC's or are they completely different? I am downloading building regs from local council areas but I am finding a lot of the website don't have anything on there. I guess I have to contact the councils directly?!?!
Any advice or tips would be really appreciated!!
