Working With Your Neighbours
Did you know that your neighbours have legal rights when it comes to your property development projects?
Being a good neighbourly developer is important! Upsetting your neighbours can result in:
- Delay in obtaining planning consent – or Council refusing your application.
- Delay in carrying out and completing development.
- Legal threats and action.
- General neighbourhood upset… all of which costs you time and money!
Hiding out from your neighbours and not taking responsibility for the impact of your development doesn’t fix the problem! It’s important to find a way through the problem to bring about a reasonable outcome for you both.
Better still – consider all the potential impacts during your due diligence phase! To talk us through common issues that may arise is Emma Herriman from Herriman Legal who will give real world examples of:
- “Where is the boundary between our properties?”
- “Where does my infrastructure run?”
- “Why are your trees encroaching on my land?”
- “You can’t remove that tree without consent”
- “You didn’t consult me on your planning application and I have a million problems with it”
- “Your demolition has damaged my house / land”
- “You are making too much noise”
- “You have trespassed onto my property”
- “Your house is too close to ours”
- “Your stormwater is impacting my property”
- “The operation of your [infrastructure – pool equipment etc] is causing a nuisance.”
- “I have called the Council about the issue and will be seeking legal advice”
Come along to his Meetup to find out how to lower the risk of neighbour upset, disputes and legal action in preparing for and carrying out your development.

Harwood Homes - Nicola Woodman & Mark Harris
Mark Harris & Nicola Woodman have been property developing since 2012, more seriously since 2016 and quit our day jobs in 2018 & 2022 respectively. Their current favourite strategy is subdivisions. They are about to sign on deal number 21. Other projects in the pipeline are another 2 subdivisions, and an affordable housing project, with 2 projects just finished – they are looking for more!
'Real Deal' Presentation
1 into 6 Land Subdivision (Harwood Homes - Mark Harris & Nicola Woodman)
3.22ha, Rural Living & Rural Horticulture Zoning, Waikerie, District Council of Loxton Waikerie, South Australia
Have you ever thought about tackling a subdivision project in a rural area BUT found yourself overwhelmed by the what-ifs?
Don’t know how to get access to services with such a big block of land?
What about also having to deal with flooding, wildlife, pesky Council regulations! It all sounds pretty tricky… Right!?!? It’s enough to make anyone hesitate!
Well, that’s what Mark & Nicola from Harwood Homes faced with this 1 into 6 subdivision project - PLUS there were more obstacles to navigate:
- deceased estate with inflexible lawyer as the executor
- change of government policy for rural rooming houses
- Anomaly in the zoning
- delays to electricity connection with Murray River flooding
- water connection installed in the wrong place
- Council asking for building envelope for the 5,200m2 subdivided block! Whatttt???
- creepy bedroom in the existing house…
- AND rabbits eating the landscaping! Augghhhh!
Fortunately, they had great JV partners who funded the deal in cash (no banks involved) and Council came good with laying bitumen on the road at the front of the block.
Come along to this Meetup to learn from these super-experienced developers how they ploughed through the problems and harvested a healthy profit at the end of the deal!
