We recently bought a reno in Melb. that has a second dwelling extension. Literally a 2 bed 1 bath added on out the back with kitchenette. There is a door that joins the two dwellings and other than the fact a cupboard has been built across the door the two are technically one dwelling, share HW and not separately metered.
Rather than opening it up we are now considering closing them off properly but they will still share HW and be on one meter then renting them out separately with utilities included in rent.
Does anyone see an issue with this, what a are the legalities eg. No technical firewall between dwellings. ? Complications ?
