The Building Design Primetime Podcast, hosted by Amelia and Frank Geskus, explains why "just getting plans drawn up" is a significant misconception, construction documents involve far more than drawings, including site investigations, soil tests, surveys, bushfire assessments, and planning compliance.
Frank and Amelia answer the questions nobody thinks to ask until it's too late. Why does cheap land so often turn out to be the most expensive land? What's lurking beneath your block that nobody's telling you about? Are you unknowingly breaking the law before construction even begins? And why do two builder quotes for the "same" house look nothing alike? These aren't hypotheticals, they're the conversations happening in Frank's office every single week.
Whether you're buying your first block, planning a renovation, or just starting to dream about a new build, this episode will fundamentally change how you approach the entire process.
Knowledge is protection. And in building, the right knowledge at the right time is worth more than any saving you'll find shopping around.
