Granny flats without building approval

The granny flat. A staple in Australian housing and accommodation. These secondary dwellings have been popular for decades, with reports showing that Aussies are building more and more each year.

The issue that majority of the population face with building a granny flat is that they require development or building applications. If you’re familiar with these, you’ll know that they also require a hefty ‘donation’ with them, as well as a long waiting periods. We're here to tell you how to site granny flats without building approval!

Here at VanHomes, we’re completely revolutionising the granny flat world. A VanHome is a legally registrable and compliant caravan! Our expanding homes don’t require any building application, and despite this, it has the look and feel of a normal granny flat!

Our product is built onto a legally compliant chassis, and is able to be sited anywhere a caravan can be sited, without any building approval as we mentioned earlier. What this means for you is that it isn’t applicable to BCA standards as it isn’t classed as a permanent structure.

No fees in development applications/building applications
Completely relocatable; take your investment with you when you move!
Setup is only half a day to have a fully functional granny flat on your property (traditional granny flats taking months to build).
