Building in a firezone – Risks and impacts on the Northern Beaches

With its long stretch of beaches, you'd be forgiven for thinking the Northern Beaches doesn't have any bushfire risk. But in actual fact a large portion of the LGA is covered in bush and many homes fall into bushfire risk zones. Building a property in a bushfire zone comes with a unique set of requirements that can push up building costs and build times. In this episode of the 26 and Sunny Podcast, we speak with Catherine Ryland from CR Bushfire about the risks and implications of building in a bushfire zone depending on the level of threat. Find out how it will affect your build, how much it will cost and when you should order a bushfire report if you're shopping for property on the Beaches.
