Make the most of your land
Get more value out of your land with dual occupancy designs
Dual occupancy builders in Melbourne can now get the most of their land by building multi dwellings. These builds are quite different. The land has one title, yet two or more separate properties are constructed on the same plot. Two homes on the same site are not only an excellent investment but suitable for those with growing families or elderly parents.

A duplex design is a single residential property with two dwellings under the same roof. However, they’re separated by a wall. If the duplexes are on one title, you can obtain individual titles as part of the sub-division process. With dual occupancy, each home is separate, with its own amenities.
All dual occupancy and duplexes in Melbourne can be subdivided. However, you will need to submit and go through the application process to gain permission from your local council before any subdivision can proceed.
Dual occupancy properties can be sold separately, but knowing how to do this is challenging. Our knowledgeable team at JKBD are here to help. Contact us to find out more about this process.
