  • 120 - Should I Renovate Or Knockdown And Rebuild?

    Most of the time we, renovators, have this dilemma to either do a cosmetic renovation or knockdown the property and rebuild. This situation is critical because it always involves numbers and we have to be more cautious about what actions to take in order to minimise risks. With that being said, I thought of giving you some tips on the aspects you need to consider before you proceed. 

    Highlights:

    • [00:01:12] How to replace your income with renovating
    • [00:04:45] Renovate or rebuild?
    • [00:05:24] We're all emotionally connected to our family homes
    • [00:06:37] Is the existing building substantial?
    • [00:07:07] What condition is the existing property in?
    • [00:07:40] Identify what it is you really love
    • [00:09:03] The impacts of your home on the property
    • [00:09:47] Is the property sympathetic to the area?
    • [00:10:32] The natural environment
    • [00:11:10] Your decision might incur GST
    • [00:12:06] Keep good records
    • [00:12:45] Do the numbers with a quantity surveyor
    • [00:13:26] Compare new building to newly renovated
    • property
    • [00:13:51] Find a builder who has a reputation of doing
    • good work and cost-effective
    • [00:15:04] Determine how emotionally attached you are to the property
    • [00:16:08] Family home represents the bulk of wealth
    • [00:17:35] The planning laws
