    The vacant block next door has a covenant on it for another 5 years. It is currently a sigle dwelling only covenent as others in the estate. After it expires whats the deal. I dont want to live next to a block of 4 units. Whats my rights as I live next door. After the covenant expires is a developer free to subdive or build 4 units on it?  What do they have to do to do this ? Can I appeal or object to it?
    Any help appreciated.
    Cheers

    It will depend on the zoning and what is permitted under that zoning. In NSW if it is close to amenities, transport & services you can erect units for the over 55's basically in any residential zone. If there is an appropriate zoning, your house probably has the same zoning but you can check out the zoning map at council. Speak to a town planner (possibly at council).
