Dual Living: How does it actually work? Many of the questions that we frequently receive are related to the functionality of a Dual Living property; how does the access work? Will we have to see our tenants everyday? Is there enough privacy?

Check out this newly completed dual living property in Huntlee, as you can see there is completely separate access to the secondary dwelling via a private front path and private gate entrance, furthermore you’ll notice two mailboxes and two meters. This gives the resident of the second smaller dwelling independence and privacy from the main house, making it feel like its own block! Tenants in either dwelling do not need to have any interaction with one another and each house is on a separate lock and key so there is security for both parties.

What are some of the benefits of Dual Living? It allows you to configure the house and rental situation to suit your needs, you could live in the large house and rent the smaller, rent both or rent the larger and live in the smaller with a view to move into the larger down the track when your family may expand! It is more versatile and cost effective than building a duplex and in the future if you required the whole space, the smaller dwelling can be converted to be one large house.
