I own a IP in Manly West Brisbane and following some advice I got on this site I am exploring the feasibility of puting some capital into the property in the form of an upstairs extension over the existing home which will also provide bay views and improve the value even further I hope and I will gain the tax breaks also I guess.
A couple of queries for more seasoned IP'ers / renovators out there.
1. Does anyone know of a reputable craftsman specialising in upstairs extensions, particularly on 1950 / 60's highset chamferboard homes, with ceramic tile roof's?
2. Is anyone aware of the rules and regs regarding upstairs extensions and limits on height increases?
3. If the orginal tiles cannot be matched is anyone aware of those chaps I saw advertising some time ago that would repaint and reseal existing old tiles. Not that mine leak, but it may be a good way of matching them to new ones of an unmatched colour.
Look forward to any helpful feedback that can be provided?
