If you're planning to build a new home, extend an existing property, develop a dual occupancy project, subdivide land, or undertake a commercial development in Melbourne, understanding the town planning permit process is essential. Many property owners are surprised to learn that obtaining a building permit is not always the first step. In many cases, a town planning permit must be secured before any building approvals can be issued. Melbourne's planning system is designed to ensure developments align with local policies, neighbourhood character, environmental considerations, and community needs. While the process can seem complicated, obtaining the right advice early can save significant time, money, and frustration. At Vaastu Atelier, we help homeowners, investors, and developers navigate Melbourne's planning requirements with confidence. In this guide, we explain everything property owners need to know about town planning permits in Melbourne. What Is a Town Planning Per...

Melbourne has long been recognised as one of Australia's most desirable cities for luxury living. From the leafy streets of Toorak and Brighton to the contemporary waterfront homes of Port Melbourne and the sprawling estates of the eastern suburbs, luxury homes continue to define the city's premium property market. For homeowners planning to build in 2026, one of the most common questions remains: How much does it cost to build a luxury home in Melbourne? The answer is not as straightforward as quoting a single figure. Luxury homes are highly customised projects, and the final cost depends on numerous variables, including land conditions, architectural design, construction materials, sustainability features, interior finishes, and the level of bespoke craftsmanship involved. A luxury home is far more than a structure. It is a carefully curated living environment designed around lifestyle, comfort, aesthetics, and long-term value. Whether you envision a modern minimalist residen...

Australia’s property market continues to evolve rapidly in 2026. Rising land prices, housing shortages, changing planning regulations, and increasing demand for flexible living arrangements have pushed dual occupancy developments into the spotlight. For homeowners, investors, and developers alike, one question remains: Are dual occupancy developments still profitable in 2026? The short answer is yes—but profitability depends more than ever on smart site selection, efficient design, council compliance, and accurate feasibility studies. At Vaastu Atelier, we help property owners unlock the full potential of their land through carefully planned dual occupancy developments that balance financial returns, functionality, and long-term value. What Is a Dual Occupancy Development? A dual occupancy development involves building two separate dwellings on a single block of land. These dwellings may be: Side-by-side duplexes Detached homes on one lot Front-and-rear dwelling configurations Dual-key...
