What we see in Highton property
Established Highton homes are renovators’ favourites, and it shows in the paperwork. The Section 32 must disclose building permits issued in the last seven years, and on a house that has been extended twice since the eighties we make sure the story adds up.
The hillside is the other recurring theme. Sloping blocks mean retaining walls, drainage easements and boundaries that deserve checking against the title plan, especially where terraced gardens have blurred the lines over the years.
In the newer stages toward the ridge, titles often carry covenants and design guidelines from the original development. They are usually mild, but if your plans include a second storey or a granny flat you want to read them first.
