Advantages of Dual Occupancy
- Maximise your land’s value by building multiple dwellings on a single block
- Generate passive income through rentals while living in one or selling the other
- Build equity faster compared to a single dwelling project
- Create long-term investment flexibility — sell one, keep one
- Appeal to a wider market — downsizers, investors, families, etc.
- Improve cash flow through rental yields or staged sales
- Potential for subdivision and individual titles for increased resale value
- Save on construction costs per dwelling by building at the same time
- Make better use of underutilised land — especially in growing suburbs
- Live next door to family (multi-gen living) while keeping privacy and ownership separate
- Take advantage of existing infrastructure — no need to buy two separate lots
- Increased depreciation benefits for investors through multiple new builds

Your simple and easy Dual Occ Journey with Omnia
We have crafted a simple and easy process that offers a stress free and hands off journey for our clients, let us take care of everything for you while you remain stress free and watch your homes be built.
1
Step 1. Assess Your Site
Before starting a dual occupancy, it’s vital to confirm your site is suitable and the project financially achievable.
At Omnia Homes, we provide early site assessments, reviewing council rules, zoning, overlays, and design constraints to identify challenges before they become costly.
This ensures your concept meets planning requirements, fits your budget, and gives you confidence to move forward.
2
Step 2. Choose Your Floor Plan and Façade
The right design depends on your block’s size, shape, and streetscape.
Each council has its own rules, so selecting compliant plans and façades speeds approvals and boosts appeal.
Your Omnia consultant will guide you through the best options to balance liveability, compliance, and long-term value.
3
Step 3. Sign the Preliminary Quotation & Pay $2,000 Fee
Once happy with your concept and pricing, you secure the project by signing a preliminary quotation and paying a $2,000 fee.
This funds site surveys, soil tests, and planning preparation. The fee is fully credited towards your contract — it’s simply the first step forward.
4
Step 4. Choose External and Internal Colours
For planning, you’ll finalise façade colours that complement the area and streetscape.
Then comes your interiors — you can match both dwellings or tailor each to different lifestyles or markets.
Omnia’s consultants help you create schemes that are stylish, functional, and market-ready.
5
Step 5. Sign the Formal Contract and Submit for Planning
With designs and colours finalised, you’ll sign the formal contract so Omnia can lodge your planning application.
We coordinate with council officers, arborists, and consultants to ensure compliance and maximise approval success.
6
Step 6. Demolish the Existing Dwelling and Prepare the Site
Once permits are granted, the old home is removed and services like sewer capping and power upgrades are managed.
The site is then cleared and cleaned, leaving a compliant, build-ready block.
7
Step 7. Begin Construction
Omnia finalises working drawings, secures the building permit, and orders materials.
Construction begins with a Site Manager overseeing daily works and a Building Administrator keeping you updated until handover.
