Hello everyone,
I am looking to buy a corner block of 610 sq m ($300k) in a western suburb in Melb. I am looking to put $80k deposit and keeping mortgage around $220k mark.
I am a first home buyer and here is the scenario:
Considering its a corner block and no easement issues, I hope there won't be much hassles.
My concern:
What are the chances for 3X200 sq subdivisions (3BR townhouses, each with their own frontage)? I have no experience with subdivision but will be taking help from friends and forum etc.
The block has 3BR+2+2 livable house. I plan to sit and hold for 3 years and then put an application for subdivision. I will then wait for another year and then demolish the existing dwelling and build 2 or 3 townhouses depending on the permit.
Do you think its a fair plan? I dont mind living in a old house for the sake of securing investment property in future.
