Frequent Risk Signals

• Council Demolition Orders: The local council or the NT Building Board has the legal authority to issue a "Show Cause" notice, which may result in a mandatory order to demolish the unapproved structure at your own expense.
• Insurance Voids: Most Australian insurance providers will not cover claims related to unapproved works; if an illegal granny flat causes a fire, you may find your entire home insurance policy is voided, leaving you with a total financial loss.
• Rectification and Certification Costs: Obtaining retrospective approval (a Certificate of Existence) is a costly and technical process that requires hiring private certifiers and engineers, often costing upwards of $10,000 to $20,000 depending on the complexity.
• Lender Refusal: Banks and financial institutions often view unapproved structures as a significant "buyer's risk"; if a valuation identifies illegal works, the bank may reduce your loan amount or refuse to fund the purchase entirely.
• Safety and Liability: Unapproved structures may not meet the National Construction Code, posing serious safety risks to occupants; as the new owner, you assume full legal liability for any injuries sustained by tenants or guests due to structural failure.
• Future Resale Devaluation: When you eventually sell the property, any unapproved works identified in a Building Status Report will likely force you to significantly discount the price or lose the sale during the cooling-off period.
