Just wondering if anyone here has gone through the process of removing building caveats?
I'm looking at an opportunity with a older property on a decent sized fairly flat block in the city of knox (Melbourne), and the section 32 shows a caveat regarding development of the land.
It's from the mid 1960's, and says the land will only have 1 dwelling (excluding garage, shed etc..) and will not be used for multi dwelling developments.
Accountant seems to think we can pay to have it removed, and the council suggest if planning meets requirements, and the development adds value, they'll be ok with it.
Has anyone come across this kind of situation? Are these old caveats able to be waivered and removed?
