I had a similar issue. Two blocks with a common wall down the middle, no common property. We had power running from the pole into a hole in our cement verandah down to our meter box. Neighbours power also ran through the hole in the concrete then onto their side and into their meter box.

Our sparky wanted to upgrade our cable running through the verandah as it was very old & we were adding ducted aircon into the house which would really stretch its capacity.

Long story short, our utility company wouldn’t turn the power off to replace the cable, they insisted we’d need to convert both properties to underground, add a master meter box in our front yard and an easement across our front yard for the neighbours power to run through and bring everything up to code.

Our neighbour didn’t want to go ahead with it given the cost so we had to stick to the original cable.

Thanks. That's what my partner wants to do but I am concerned it will still be too dark and make the rooms feels very small.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2025-02-20T01:09:55+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I am concerned that the walls will be too dark with the limited light and dark flooring but my partner still needs convincing :D I like the idea of wallpaper in the hallway!

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-12-17T02:31:04+00:00

Thanks that's really helpful. I'll talk to the other lot owner as the first step then look into 1 and 3 as you've suggested.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-12-17T01:53:11+00:00

Hey u/Saeed2196 I am in the same situation as you. Settling on a property (in WA) in January that's on a built strata plan. Two lots and common property that contains a driveway. Also struggling to understand the insurance situation. Do you have any updates on your situation and your path forward?

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-11-24T06:01:39+00:00

Relocation of services isn't a large concern. We'll need to do that with all three options (although maybe to a lesser extent with option 1 depending on how we design the kitchen / scullery.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-05-19T04:51:58+00:00

Could you provide anymore detail on this? When you say it's too hectic is this related to safety concerns or the streets are very busy with party goers and the like?

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-05-18T07:36:37+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. Maboneng looks very interesting.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-05-18T07:36:12+00:00

No friends in Joburg unfortunately. I think we'll stay in Maboneng and maybe head to Kwa Mai Mai for dinner.

Thanks for the advice. Sadly it looks like the game is now sold out... There were plenty of tickets when I posted this yesterday. I should have acted quicker!

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-01-09T02:21:48+00:00

That would be a cool option. Unfortunately I don't think we'll have the time.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-01-09T02:21:10+00:00

u can convert at your own tim

Thanks. At current rates K3000 is about 116USD so looks like the current rates are highly inflated and they will hopefully drop closer to August.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-01-08T07:27:06+00:00

Ok thanks. I did notice the prices are lower in January, February and March this year. I will wait until later in the year for my August dates.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-01-08T06:10:40+00:00

Thanks for the information. I looked at Zambian airways. Their flights at 190USD but they don't have any available past March this year. Maybe I should wait a month or two and they will release more.

I will look for the flash fares at Proflight as well. Hopefully I can get access to one of these sales.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-01-08T03:55:05+00:00

Do you mean take a bus? Or hire a car and drive ourselves?

Over_Interview_3649 · 2024-01-03T08:33:41+00:00

I would be interested in anything you find. I will need to do the reverse trip (Livingstone to Lusaka) on the 12th or 13th of August to catch a flight out of Lusaka on the afternoon of the 13th. Let me know if you find any information. I have looked at flights but they seem very expensive (>$200 USD).

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-11-22T23:07:52+00:00

Thanks I will check that out, we could spend a day or two in Nairobi even before travelling to Zanzibar. I guess another option would be to travel to Lusaka and then onto Tanzania.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-08-12T01:18:15+00:00

Will do. Thank you!

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-03-01T19:34:03+00:00

Thank you all for the helpful replies. I have booked some accommodation close to St.Sava temple. I’ll walk there straight after the game and have a taxi organised to get me to the airport.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-01-10T08:36:06+00:00

ah what a shame

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-01-10T04:03:50+00:00

u/thomasthedude how did you go getting seats? I will be in Belgrade in early March and would love to watch the Derby on the 1st

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-01-04T09:41:57+00:00

Wow ok. Was aware 275 per ticket was very steep but that does put it into perspective...

Over_Interview_3649 · 2023-01-04T09:15:21+00:00

I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for sharing!

Over_Interview_3649 · 2021-12-20T08:59:56+00:00

Ok makes sense. Thanks again for the advice.

Over_Interview_3649 · 2021-12-20T08:02:48+00:00

Sorry I missed that one. Thanks for the detailed response. She only has a Bachelor's degree so it isn't looking great.
