  • Mystery replied to the topic Sub Dividing in the forum Value Adding 11 years, 6 months ago

    I'm fairly sure this company contacted me a while ago and offered their services. It was going to cost something like $24,000 to handle the sub-division process including plans, council stuff etc, but didn't include council fee's and some other costs which I can't remember. I think from memory by the time everything was factored in it was closer…[Read more]
