    Thanks Zazou, that's what I was hoping. I think the house went in the Black Sat fires so it's been a while, although there is still rebuilding happening in the area.

    Definitely chat to them. We live in farming zone and want to rebuild.
    We got lots of conflicting information, like having to build on the same foot print (so demolish first), or having to start an extension that then becomes the house, then tear down the original. We have since found out that we can rebuild in a different position and once we have cert of occupancy, we will have 6 months to demolish the old house.

    Chances are you should be fine, as there is precedence (there was an existing dwelling) and there may still be a building permit for it.

    Thanks so much, Astrid. We're happy to build on the same spot, there is power and a septic tank there and I'm not envisioning huge issues but you never know hey?!
