    I am working out if building a 2 bed unit about 100m2 in my backyard is a good overall investment. Considering the  front unit would drop in value is this project worth pursuing. Has anyone done a similar build in the past ? Would you please share your experience how did it go ?

    Hi Mj2506,

    In my wife’s family, they bought a house (5 bedrooms) in Chadstone (Melbourne) over 10 years ago with a backyard.

    After the 3 kids left the house, they divided the backyard and built a 3-bedroom house to sell the first one and live in the second one: they’re now mortgage free and bought a holiday house cash!

    Hope this help,
