Last year we decided after our NRAS investment had been running for a year we would put a GF on our PPR block. Since then the town planning rules have changed so now we are revisiting that plan.
Our block in Yangebup WA is 980sqm which was previously 200 short of the 1000 needed. Now I understand there is an average block size of 450sqm. Unfortunately the current 4x2 double brick house is almost bang in the middle of the block.
What to do? Demolish house and redevelop whole block, do the granny flat thing (which will have very low impact on amenity due to block configuration) or try to squeeze a separate title on while keeping most of our house and garden?
I just have no idea where to start with working out the best option and would like to look at all options before we commit to the existing GF plan.
GF will likely cost $120 000 all up with rental of around $320 pw. But how on earth to work out the cost/benefit on other options?
Thanks for any ideas you have.
