Knock Down and Rebuild

1. Knock Down and Rebuild by SIMONE HOMES If you love where you're living but not the home you're in, a knock down rebuild could be an excellent solution for your family. As the name suggests, a knock down rebuild involves pulling down your existing house and using the land to build a brand-new home. Knocking down your existing home to build a new one allows you to have complete control, flexibility and the benefit of a more functional design. This includes things like the layout or floor plan, the standard of your inclusions, how you use all of the space in your new home and incorporating the latest technology and energy-efficient products into your home. To top it off, in comparison to most renovations, it is also a pretty cost-effective option. Before you plan to knock down your existing home, it's essential to check whether your land is suitable. To do this, make sure to get a current section 149 from your local council. A section 149, otherwise known as a planning certificate, will outline the planning information about your lands, such as its zoning and any restrictions that apply. The purpose of this is to make the process of building your new home as smooth as possible with no bumps along the road.

2. After being in your current home for many years, it's time for a change. Finally, you're in a position where you can finally build one of those luxury homes you've dreamed about. The one thing holding you back is that you love where you live. But, believe it or not, you can have both. The solution is to knock down your existing home and rebuild a beautiful new dwelling right on the same spot. If your house is showing its age, the cost of fixing various issues can quickly add up. The money you spend on an extensive renovation project may or may not get you the results you want. In addition, attaching a whole new section to your existing home requires working around the existing structure, which can create disruptions in your daily living. You might suddenly learn that you have to upgrade some areas to comply with building regulations, creating additional costs you didn't plan on. Finally, even a good renovation means compromising what you want because of space, budget or code issues. A knock down and rebuild of all these issues lets you build a new home that's exactly what you want and within your existing budget. You might want to build a home that is more eco-friendly and efficient than the one you have. These features can be added to a new home for a fraction of the cost of adding them to an existing structure. It's also beneficial to talk to your builder about whether your project is suitable for a Complying Development Certificate or whether you will need to go through your local council for Development Approval. A complying development certificate is for minor developments with predictable or minor environmental impacts, which your local council will need to approve before starting your build. Development approval is given by the local council for more complex buildings and includes a set of guidelines and structure details that the builder must adhere to.
