How it works
From unsure to organised — in three clear steps.
Navilot doesn't replace your council, your certifier, or your architect. It gets you ready to work with them.
Preparation guidance only
Navilot is not a council approval, planning advice or legal advice. The information here is general guidance to help you prepare. Always confirm requirements with your local council and qualified professionals before making decisions or spending money.

Tell us about your property and project.

- Property address and lot details
- Type of project you're considering
- Who will use the space
- Timeframe and budget range
