As available properties become scarcer, duplex and dual occupancy developments are increasing in popularity. Duplex and dual occupancy developments have the potential to offer great opportunities and value.

Building a duplex is a great way to maximise the site, ensuring living space both inside and out is maximised, while helping to keep the build cost lower. A common wall or ‘party wall’ as part of a traditional duplex construction provides the developer with the cost benefit of maximizing site area, while providing the residents of each home with privacy and lifestyle.

Probity Construction work with a range of options for dual occupancy developments. When working with an existing dwelling we can undertake a feasibility study to assist you in realising the full potential of a rear or front property development. For cleared blocks (or in the case of a knock down) we’ll undertake a feasibility study andhelp design the best options for maximising potential and returns on the project.

Dual occupancy and duplex developments can be complicated by complex issues surrounding subdivision. Not all properties can be subdivided (full subdivision into separate titles) and this will significantly affect the type of development possible and the potential return on investment. That’s why it’s important to work with an experienced team to understand the best options for your development.
