Thinking about building townhouses or multi-dwellings in NSW? You might be sitting on a goldmine without even realising it. 

In this episode, host Nathan Battishall breaks down the 2025 Low to Mid-Rise Housing Reforms that have just come into effect. These changes unlock huge development potential in R1, R2, and R3 zones — even in areas that previously didn’t allow it. 

Nathan explains the new minimum lot sizes, height limits, car parking rules, and how they override local council controls. But it's not as simple as ticking a few boxes — setbacks, solar access, and landscaping rules still apply. He also shares smart acquisition tips and the type of blocks that could offer the best returns. 

Whether you’re a seasoned developer or just getting started, this episode is packed with insight you won’t want to miss.
