So what do you need to know before you purchase a granny flat for sale? My name is Colin Fragar from Council Approval Group. So if you’ve come across this video, you’re probably looking for a property to purchase that has a granny flat in it. And I would ask you to take a step back and to think about getting your granny flat another way.

Purchase or Build a Granny Flat

Instead of purchasing a property that has a granny flat already on it and you pay the retail price, think about buying a property where you can build your own granny flat. The sales price will largely reflect the rental income that you receive and you’re probably not going to be making too much of a rental return on that property that already has a granny flat. If you buy a property without a granny flat and we help you to get a granny flat, approved and built then you can benefit from being effectively the developer.

So whether you’re looking for greater rental return or maybe you’re looking for extra space for your family, what I recommend is that you grab a copy of Your Ultimate Guide to Council Approval. It’s a magazine we’ve put together for people like you.
And if you do have a property that you’re about to purchase, make sure you don’t spend hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars on this property without getting the right advice beforehand.
We represent property owners either going to auction or when they’re just looking at a general property that’s up for sale, we do the due diligence for them and make sure you can get the approvals that you need. There might even be potential for us to do better than a granny flat for you.
