Fun Fact Friday 🔔 SETBACKS are the distance from a curb, property line, or structure within which building is prohibited. They will determine how far back from the street your house must be located. Setbacks should be looked at prior to designing your home as it can affect the size and location of your dwelling on your land. To find out your setback, contact your local council and request a copy of your planning zone. #buildingregulations #councilrequirements #happycouncilhappybuilding #ringwoodbuilder #building #brownhillhomes #residential #maroondah #maroondahcouncil #drafting (at Ringwood, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/By89gFRl7nN/?igshid=1mt53jqhv9n12

Fun Fact Friday 🔔 Re-establishment Surveys can cost $1,000 or more and, at the time they seem like a lot of money for something that’s not tangible. However, as they say in the industry: “Getting a survey done by a registered surveyor is the best insurance policy you can buy”. In the case that you’re working close to a boundary or on a clean block of land, you need to ensure you have your boundaries correctly pinned and a RL (reduced level) benchmark set. This should be organised at the start of every job. Once a qualified surveyor has attended site you will be provided a copy of title and title sketch which will contain crucial information including easement locations, covenants and fencing be it on boundary or not. Such items may influence a proposed development/build. Needless to say, there are many benefits to knowing for certain that your property lines are where you thought they were. You want to know for sure that you are not leaving any of your land unused or untouched, but you also want to make sure that you aren't building into a neighbour's yard because you thought your property extended a few centimetres farther than it actually does. Such small errors can be costly if you have to tear down a shed or move a fence, and therein lies the value of a title re-establishment survey. #reestablishmentsurvey #brownhillhomes #funfacts #ringwoodbuilder #whatisthis #knowingalltheinfo #buildingfacts #commonquestions #requestedfunfactfriday #localbuilder #survey #buildingsurvey #surveyor #establishmentsurvey https://www.instagram.com/p/ByY9MjiFj7w/?igshid=xmz6166manls

5 tips when building a duplex A duplex is a single residential building with two dwellings under the one roof and a dividing wall between 1. Zoning – Looking to build a home but you’re situated on a block with a bigger street frontage? Maybe a Duplex is for you. Next step is crucial to fully investigating what your local council zoning will allow you to do with it. Before speaking to too many different sources, we suggest keeping it simple and getting in contact with your local builder to ascertain which contacts will best suit your situation. 2. Finance - Although it might cost more to build a duplex than a single freestanding home, it’s certainly cheaper than building two separate homes. The biggest appeal for investors is the value added to the property when a duplex development is complete. You create two big homes, sell one, and potentially pay off all of your build costs plus half your mortgage. 3. Design – Have you ever walked past a building and thought ‘How did they get that approved through council?’. Employing the right contacts from the beginning will ensure you are getting the most out of your block through design. Adding features such as Skylights down the adjoining wall and higher ceiling throughout will give the feeling of Light and space. 4. Timing - When it comes to building and completing your duplex, speed is everything. That’s not to say the job should be rushed, but it pays (literally) to get everything organised and in place as early as possible to ensure your property doesn’t become a money pit. Most people buy the block of land and have a loan for that. The holding costs on the block of land on which your duplex will be constructed can be huge and every week that goes by means another big hit to your wallet, so you’re best to find a builder who can plan and complete the job quickly, but still with quality. 5. Choosing a builder - When choosing a builder don’t just look at their price, look at the quality of their work; for example do they have a track record of building duplexes and can you view their past work? #duplex #townhouse #duplexbuild #realestate #melbournecustomhomes #ringwoodbuilder #brownhillhomes #bentleigheast (at Bentleigh East, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByPTj6RFPEV/?igshid=1nda3c4qpflrz

Fun fact Friday 💡 Kitchen work triangle - referring to the primary tasks in a Kitchen between the cooktop, the sink and the refrigerator. These 3 points and the imaginary lines between them, make up what Kitchen experts call the ‘work triangle‘. The Idea being that when these 3 elements are close but not too close (forming your triangle) the Kitchen will be easy and efficient to use, cutting down wasted steps. #worksmarternotharder #kitchentriangle #kitchendesign #buildingahouse #interiorlayouts #interiordesign #ringwoodbuilder #buildinglocal #brownhillhomes #kitchen #home #build #residential #townhouse #development #stonebenchtops #polytec #technika #haymespaint #painting #cooking #appliances #timberflooring #tasmanianoak #pendants #islandbench #nationaltiles #splashbacks (at Ringwood East, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByHL49DF6s2/?igshid=1gpymm4wcr2nm
