    Thanks Steven for your reply, I have looked into both plus others and the NAB seems the best.[thumbsupanim]

    The pit currently on your IP is a stormwater (rubble pit) which is not exceptable for development sites just a single home site. The pit you may have to build if you can’t get access to the stormwater drain will be a much larger concrete/block construction which will hold the water for a period of time then pump it up and out to the kerb gutter. Council will be the ones to tell you what you can and can’t build.

    It’s not that you can’t build on the low side of the street it’s just going to cost you more as with development sites you have to contain the run off water (surface & stormwater) on your site in a greater volume. The main cost comes in if you can’t connect the stormwater system into the council stormwater drain by the normal method gravity feed, you will probably be required to install a large pit and then have a pump set up that will pump the stormwater from the pit to the front kerb in a delayed manner at least thats how it is with many of the councils in Sydney. Not knowing where you are looking to do this development the best thing to do is go to the council for the area and put the question to them as to what they will require. I know of a number of developers that have not had to install the pit because they where able to come to an agreement with a neighbour that had the council stormwater drain in their yard so a bit of money paid and the neigbour allowed them access via their yard to get to the council stormwater drain by gravity ie the normal method.

    G’day Grant7,
    I have had a discretionary trust for over 3years, used it a number of times to get loans, refinancing etc. It is set up with a company as the trustee and i am the only director of the company, as such i am the only one that has to go guarantor, not even my wife who is a principal beneficiary has to. I have our children, church and other non profit organisations as beneficarys and the loans my trust take out have nothing to do with them they just receive distrubutions and if they pay tax they then pay the required tax on their distrubution. Hope this helps.[thumbsupanim]
