These are the 3 most questions that I get asked when it comes to granny flats and I thought I would share it with everyone.
Before I delve into them, what is a granny flat ? The name originated as a means for families to accommodate ageing parents, since then the introduction of the 2009, NSW Government Affordable Housing State Environment Planning Policy (SEPP) made it permissible for residential home owners who fulfill the requirements to build in their backyard under a streamline, efficient process. These granny flats where then being used to not only accommodate growing families, it was also an excellent opportunity for investors and the like!
