Even if you don't need a planning permit sometimes you still need a Council 'approval' before your building certifier allows you to start building. aup town planning provides a prompt, expert, and informative assessment service so you get any additional approvals and start building as soon as possible. 

Buying the right property is a critical first step in achieving your property development goals - and there's a lot to know, from knowing zone to look at, and any relevant planning scheme controls, to reviewing the property's title information, and 'reading' the site. aup town planning's due diligence investigations are thorough and expert. Contact us before or after you buy a property. 

Even before purchasing a property aup town planning will advise on all your development options - i.e., all the ways you can develop the property - to maximise its development potential and your development goals, and to maximise your financial gains. We will also advise on the likelihood of you getting an approval for a particular 'type' of development.
