I used it for Victoria until recently and only stopped using it because the Victorian Government forced RP Data to censor the sale date and sale price when used by anyone who is not a licensed real estate agent. I’m currently searching for other ways to access the uncensored data.…[Read more]

I have found the service of the drafting company to be excellent and I also have a direct dialogue with the Town Planner they use. The draftsman runs the process, but I have also had direct meetings with the Town Planner whenever I wanted. My project and…[Read more]

How have you found Property Subdivision Group now that a few months has passed? I’m also talking with them (Robert Lancaster) about a 2 block subdivision project in Melbourne (leave existing house on front of block, and getting Town Planning, Building approval and Subdivision permit for new house at rear).

I have found them to be…[Read more]
