Building The Future of Perth
We assess every site's true development potential before you commit, so you're subdividing for the strongest return the R-Codes allow, not just what looks feasible on paper.
✓ Feasibility assessments that account for the 900→700sqm R-Code change
✓ Risk flagged early: title, easements, heritage overlays, before you're locked in
✓ Lot yield modelling based on current planning scheme, not guesswork
We interpret R-Codes precisely so your application moves through council the first time, not the third. Fewer RFIs, fewer delays, no surprises six weeks in.
✓ Faster approvals backed by precise R-Code interpretation
✓ Council-ready documentation that reduces RFIs
✓ End-to-end support from feasibility through to subdivision
Applications that stall in council usually stall on paperwork. We prepare documentation to the standard councils expect, so yours doesn't sit in a queue waiting for clarification.
✓ DAP and development applications prepared to council specification
✓ Clear, senior-planner-reviewed submissions, not junior first drafts
✓ Direct liaison with council on your behalf throughout the process
Our Services.
Forge Planning by Michael Clare offers a range of services covering the full lifecycle of your project, from initial feasibility and R-Code assessment through to development approval and subdivision.
