How much does it cost to build or renovate?

Many factors can be managed by the client to keep the costs down. Practical and intelligent design solutions can help negate unforeseen site costs and site-specific requirements.

What is the difference between a DA and a CDC?

A Development Application (DA) is a merit-based assessment conducted directly through the local council. A DA is a two-stage process that includes the assessment and then once the DA is completed a construction certificate (CC) must be submitted & approved.

Complying Development Checklist (CDC) is a combined planning and construction approval process. It is designed to enable straightforward development applications to be fast-tracked. It can be conducted by either your local council or a private certifier. As a result the process is faster than a DA. You must comply with a strictly defined checklist for every element. Failure to meet every regulation will render the CDC non-compliant.

Do I really need a survey?

Sometimes if the construction scope is significantly away from boundary and the scope is minor then you might be able to get away with no survey.

However, 99.5% of the time, yes you do need a recent survey.
