I have a 780m2 R30 block in Hamilton Hill.
The existing house can be retained and is currently rented.
I am going to battleaxe the back block. It will be approximately 340m2 + the common driveway.
I am not sure which way to go:
1. Subdivide, then sell the block. How much do you guys think this would cost and how long would it take?
2. Subdivide then build, then sell the house. I would probably put a smallish 4 x2 on there as these seem quite rare in Hammy Hill, and seem to get good prices. what are the pros and cons of this, scenario and how long would it take.
3. Build and then apply for strata after the building approval has been issued.
The problem i have is that if you talk to a builder, they say build first then apply.
Talk to a project manager/subdivider consultant and they say subdivide then build. but seem to want a lot of money to assist.
How difficult is it to go through the subdivision process yourself, and if you do go through someone else what are the likely fees.
Sorry it's all a bit convoluted, but my brain is spinning with the options.
I paid $530k for the block and house, The house would be worth $450k and the back house if a $ 4x2 $520-550K. if a calved off the back block and sold it it would probably fetch $260-280k.
Thoughts please!!
