The search function actually came up with quite a few threads which i have read through but the info is a little vauge on the process of strata titling. I have spoken to my solicitor and finance so happy with how that sits at the moment.
We are looking at a tired but solid older block of 4 x 2 bedroom flats (2 on top of each other), the good news is that they all open onto balconies so no internal hallways/stairwells/etc... which need fire raiting. To strata title them i understand you need to comply with current fire regs which will mean that the walls and floors between need to be fire rated.
Which trade do i speak to about getting this done? Would I be able to contract this directly or would the works need to be done by a licensed builder as i can't imagine i can swing this one under 'owner builder'.
Are there any ball parks around a cost per m^2 of this service?
Once the fire work is done what other items may need consideration before applying for strata?
Which department at council would i speak too, i assume planning but no doubt they will bounce me to building for some inspections?
