Tips Tricks to Subdivision of Land in NSW

So, a subdivision approval has a huge amount of potential to add value to your property portfolio. Just the approval alone is worth good money, even if you don’t end up continuing the process. We need to look at things like:
  • the zoning the minimum lot size,
  • the site’s constraints,
  • some of the environments mapping constraints such as bushfire riparian corridors, and
  • making sure you’ve accommodated for stormwater.
    • We often look for ways to maximise your yield and often the way to do that is to look for other loopholes like subdivision through a dual occupancy process. Or maybe there’s some departures that a town planning firm like ourselves can organize to depart from the minimum lot size.
