Frequently asked questions

A granny flat, also known as a secondary dwelling, is a self-contained accommodation that can be connected to or detached from a main residence. In a granny flat, you can accommodate your adult children or aging parents, or use it to generate rental income to help cover the cost of your investment. Keep in mind that some states allow granny flats to be rented out, while others restrict their use to family members only.

Granny flats typically take 3-6 days to install the prefab parts on a prepared foundation. Additional time is required for internal fit-outs and fittings.

In some states like NSW, QLD and VIC there are fast-track approval process for granny flats that can be built without council approval. In other states, the process is less clear and is managed by local councils rather than being state-wide. Choose your state on ‘Do I need council approval’ page to explore some standard guidelines to determine if you might be able to construct a granny flat without requiring council approval.
