Duplex
New Property Australia has been helping Australians to scope, source, secure and build Duplex property projects for many years.
Duplexes have been a popular type of property for many years. Most LGA’s allow them, although not all do.
The main advantage of a Duplex is that it can be Strata Titled (split into two titles) after construction is completed. Strata Titling is not mandatory and some buyers choose not to, so as they only incur one set of Council rates. If the decision to Strata Title is made, a body corporate is formed to manage the common property and public liability insurance. The common property areas can often be minimised thus reducing some management issues etc. Even after a property is Strata Titled, in some circumstances it is possible to subsequently have the Body Corporate dissolved if the owners of both units agree.
Duplexes are commonly single storey or two storey. Depending on zoning and density allowances, they could even be 3 or 4 storey, with a lift and possibly a basement carpark.
It can sometimes be possible to build a Duplex as two separate buildings, depending on the LGA and site size, shape and allowable site coverage.Â
Each unit is allowed to have its own egress (driveway crossover) so there is no requirement for the garages to be adjoined and in fact they could be located on different streets on a corner block.
