A duplex design features two independent homes that can be individually titled and sold. These homes are connected by a shared wall, known as a 'party wall,' and require some extra steps with the council, including compliance with zoning regulations. Hive Homes has extensive experience in building duplexes and can assist you through every stage, from planning to completion. Ideal for investors, a duplex offers flexibility—you can live in one home and rent out the other, lease both, or sell one property while keeping the other. Plus, you can bypass the complexities of body corporate management often associated with unit developments.
