Hi All,
I was hoping to get some advice as to how to go about subdividing in Brisbane.
I'm a first timer and wanted to give it a go as I'm also looking for a place to live. So essentially what I'm hoping for is to find a house with land big enough to subdivide without knocking down the original house.
I've had a read through the brisbane city council website and their pages on subdivision but am still slightly confused on how to approach certain things.
I understand there are different zonings and at this stage will make it a point to avoid the DCP zones as probably not in my comfort zone as yet. What I'm not sure of is, if I buy a place, how do i know what shape the new block will be for subdividing(ie what sizes/shape) or is that what townplanners/surveyors/engineers etc are for?
To start then, should I be asking the REA's for plans of the current housing orientation/dimensions to then determine what's left over?
Thanks
