The Benefits of Obtaining a BASIX Report in Sydney NSW

If you intend to build a new development or extend your home, you'll need to obtain a BASIX certificate before you can proceed with construction. BASIX, (Building Sustainability Index), was designed by the government to ensure that all new dwellings, both low- and high-rise, comply with standards concerning their environmental impact, water efficiency, and sustainability. You need to submit data relating to your development plans via an online portal to be assessed for compliance, and if you don't meet the criteria, you will be unable to secure a BASIX certificate until you can prove your proposed development complies.

If your plans are halted due to a lack of compliance with the required BASIX standards, you might need to consider how you can modify your blueprints to ensure the finished development will be environmentally friendly. It could be that you need to install double glazing and bolster the insulation in the ceiling to make your dwellings more energy efficient, or you may have to take extra measures to prevent water wastage. Although the government requires you to comply with BASIX, property hunters expect you to as well because they want a home that doesn't cost thousands to power every year, and research suggests that BASIX compliant properties cost $600 less to power annually than non-compliant homes.
