How It Works

Technology prepares the facts. A qualified planner completes the advice.

01

Select your address

Address autocomplete guides users to a verified property selection — no manual address typing.

02

Complete a guided questionnaire

Questions adapt to the proposal: extension, shed, dwelling, carport, subdivision or change of use.

03

Facts are prepared automatically

Planning Compass helps organise objective information like council, zone, overlays, bushfire data, lot size and site information into a clear report template.
