    Hi Guys,

    Does anyone have any experience with 'splitter' blocks in Brissy?

    A mate was harping on about doing one in brissy and making good profit in the subdivision.

    Hi Ichiban33,

    When developing splitter blocks in Brisbane there is a lot of things you need to consider.

    Below is the process I go through to determine if the project is viable when slitting a block for Building on splitter blocks in Brisbane development.

    After identifying the block, I check the demolition control Precinct (DCP) if the house is built pre 1946 and if the block is on the flood map or any overland flow issues.

    I then get the dimensions and run the costing of the project.

    The things I look in a splitter block are:

    • Cost of the site
    • Demolition approval
    • Demolition costs
    • Services off (sewer and water)
    • Location of services on the block
    • Any other associated development costs
    • Transfer and Legal costs
    • Subdivision costs – Civil design, Town planning, public notices, council fees and any council contributions.
    • Building construction costs
    • Associated site costs (levelling and retaining)
    • Marketing on the finish product

    If all the figures add up to a profitable project….an educated decision can be made.

    Thanking You
