2026 Planning Context

Current data behind the land-first decision

$3.09T NSW land value

NSW land values reached $3.09 trillion at 1 July 2025, based on more than 66,000 property sales analysed by the Valuer General.

450sqm dual occupancy standard

NSW Low and Mid-Rise standards use 450sqm minimum lot size, 12m minimum width and 0.65:1 FSR for dual occupancies in eligible areas, subject to zoning, site constraints, local controls and applicable planning provisions.

Sydney values under pressure

Cotality reported Sydney dwelling values fell 0.9% in May 2026, making feasibility and approval certainty more important before major capital spend.
