Having a look through the forum, there doesn't seem to be much information regarding new buildings and the process therein?
Maybe thats more suited to a new homebuyer forum?
We've only been looking over the last few weeks at a couple of blocks of land in a several areas which are rapidly expanding.
We've never built new before, so it's all baby steps with regards to the process
A block we are currently interested in is 920m2, with a 21m frontage and 43.8m length
A nice quiet street on an elevated position (can be windy according to a neighbour) facing the perth hills
Of concern (or not) however, is an apparent sewer inspection plate off to one side and the telstra box, any ideas what impact these may have with regards to vehicles/driveways/crossovers/access or encumbrences
Inpsection lid?
Telstra (baby Dalek) box?
When purchasing new land is there anything that needs to be added into the agreement i.e. "Subject to......" ?
Or additional clauses with regards to due diligence?
Special terms & Conditions?
Anything else we need to not only ask, but get in writing?
i.e.
Ask the developer or local Council about the minimum distance required between the front of the house and the road and the distance required between the house and side fences Have asked the sales person as an initial query and it was 1.5M?
We have had a look at the proposed locations of a new shopping centre, plus driven around to see parks, access to current shops from the block, distances to schools etc
I'm sure 50% was mentioned when we talked to a sales agent, however a drive through of the area and looking at a number of houses in different stages of contsruction had me thinking that must be a minimum rather than a maximum
Nothing like looking at a concrete slab on a vacant block to give you a perspective of coverage
