Free Site Assessment

DraftRoom offer a no obligation, free Site Assessment to help you identify the opportunities, constraints, and development potential of your property. This desktop assessment covers:

  • Site analysis

  • Local planning scheme requirements

  • Development potential (Secondary Dwelling & Dual Occupancy)

What’s included?

Site Analysis

Our Free Site Assessment will analyse several aspects of your property. By providing us with the basic information in the form above, we use the latest satellite images, Council overlays, and as-constructed information to generate a comprehensive understanding of your site and its features.

Planning Scheme Requirements

We can determine if your project requires additional design considerations and consultant reports to comply with planning scheme requirements. Having this information early, can not only help you evaluate the feasibility of your project but can save time and avoid hidden costs. These considerations and reports can include:

  • Bushfire Assessment & Management

  • Flood Certificate

  • Acoustic Requirements for Transport Corridors & Airport Overlays

  • Slope Stability Reports for Landslide Hazard Areas

  • Ecological Assessment & Management

  • Town Planning

Development Potential

With an understanding of the Site Analysis and Planning Scheme Requirements, we can assess the Development Potential of your property. Whether you are looking to build a Granny Flat (Secondary Dwelling), Duplex (Dual Occupancy), or Knock-Down-Rebuild for your dream home, our Free Site Assessment is a great tool to help you make an informed decision.

We determine if the development would be an Acceptable Outcome under the Planning Scheme, or if it would require Town Planning and Development Application with Council. DraftRoom have recently completed several Dual Occupancy projects with Town Planning and Development Applications with favourable outcomes.
