    A developer selling a block of land has told me it is common for the buyer of the back block of a subdivision to pay for the common driveway. This doesn’t seem right. Can anyone tell me if this is true?

    Hi Martin,

    If it is a common driveway I would think it reasonable for all lots in the strata to share the costs and management of the common driveway.

    No its not true!

    I assume you are buying the newly subdivided block you mentioned in the other post.

    You should be buying the land at the going price for the land (or less) and that’s all
