Builder information
Building your home is an exciting adventure that starts from the moment you begin viewing display homes to when you find one that best meets your needs. There’s a lot to consider but we are here to help you with each step.
1. Awareness
Your home must be designed in accordance with our Design Guidelines, Restrictive Covenants, Local Development Plan and any other local or State Government statutory requirements.
2. Submission
You or your builder will submit your plans to Julie Harrold via Julie@julieharroldarchitect.com. Please refer to the Design Guidelines for a list of required plans. The plans must be approved by Julie Harrold before submitting to the City of Cockburn, as required under the Contract of Sale.
3. Approval
Allow at least 10 working days for approvals against the Design Guidelines & Local Development Plan. Please ensure the Checklist has been submitted with your plans to assess compliance. Plans that do not comply will be returned with comments. Once amended, they can be resubmitted and the approval timeframes recommence.
4. Building
Once you receive approval from Julie Harrold, you or your builder may then apply for a Building Permit with the City of Cockburn. If your plans are not compliant, you will need to apply for planning approval. You can start building your dream home as soon as you have a Building Permit and all legal conveyancing requirements have been met.
