Add a Granny Flat.
Create a New Income Stream.

A second dwelling on the land you already own.

We manage every stage: from feasibility and approvals to build and handover.

HOW IT WORKS

Five stages, from the first look at your site to a tenant moving in.

1

Preliminary assessment

We check whether your property is a good fit, looking at zoning and overlays, land size, the position of your existing home, easements, fire and flood restrictions, and state-specific requirements.

2

Strategy call

We talk you through the opportunity for your property and agree the next steps.

3

Design and approvals

We manage site investigations, floorplan and interior selections, and council and building approvals.

4

Build

Our building partners construct your granny flat, with regular updates, through to turn-key ready.

5

Rent

Once it’s delivered, we help you engage a property manager, list the new unit and find a tenant.

WHY CONSIDER IT

TYPICAL TIMELINE

6-9 months

Most projects take around 6–9 months from engagement to completion, depending on your state and site.

A

A small upfront investment on land you already own — no second purchase or stamp duty.

+ B

Our team supporting you throughout, from initial assessment to a more profitable, tenanted home.

= C

Build a more valuable property while also generating a second rental income from the same title.

Good to know

Every property is different. After the preliminary assessment, your site still needs a detailed review, covering covenants, earthworks, removal of existing structures and other site-specific requirements. Any additional works may involve additional costs. We’ll talk you through all of it before you commit to anything.

More you might like to know.

A granny flat is a self-contained second home built on the land you already own. It can create a second rental income from the same title, without buying another property or paying stamp duty on a second purchase.

We begin with a preliminary assessment of your zoning, land size, existing dwelling position and access, easements, fire and flood restrictions, overlays and state-specific requirements. A more detailed site review follows before anything is confirmed.

We support the full journey: assessment, strategy, site investigations, design, approvals, builder coordination and construction updates. You make the key approvals; we keep the process moving.

We manage the required council and building approvals. During the design stage, you’ll work with us to approve the floorplan, fixtures and interior selections.

Often, yes. We’ll consider access, privacy and how construction may affect the existing tenancy. Depending on your lease and state requirements, you may need to coordinate the works with your property manager and tenant before construction begins.

Costs vary with the site, design, approvals and any additional works required. We’ll help you understand the likely build cost and upfront contribution for your property. Your mortgage broker can then advise on the right finance approach for your circumstances.

Most projects take around 6–9 months from engagement to turn-key completion. The exact timeline depends on your state, approvals, site conditions and the build scope.

That’s the intention. Once it is turn-key ready, we can help you appoint a property manager, list the dwelling and find a tenant. Rental arrangements and requirements vary by state, which we check as part of the assessment.

A second dwelling may add rental income and increase your property’s appeal and value. The outcome depends on your site, build cost, finance structure and local rental market, so we’ll help you examine the numbers before you decide.
