General guidance only
Navilot is designed to help Australian homeowners prepare for the approval journey associated with residential renovations, granny flats and property improvements. The information provided is general guidance based on publicly available rules and information supplied by you.
Not council approval
Navilot is not a council approval system. Using Navilot does not lodge, submit or receive any approval on your behalf. Any development application, complying development certificate or exempt development pathway must still be considered and, where required, submitted through the appropriate channels.
Not planning or legal advice
Nothing on this website constitutes planning, legal, financial or professional advice. Assessments generated by Navilot are preliminary in nature. Always confirm requirements with:
- your local council;
- a qualified planner, private certifier, architect or building designer; and
- any relevant state agency (for example, in NSW: the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure, Sydney Water, or NSW Rural Fire Service).
Language we use
Navilot will never describe a project as "approved", "compliant" or "guaranteed". You may instead see terms such as "preliminary", "possible", "likely", "professional confirmation required" or "needs confirmation". Please read these terms literally.
Property specific
What is possible on your property may differ significantly from a neighbouring property. Property specific constraints — including but not limited to overlays, easements, sewer alignment and existing structures — can change what is achievable.
No liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Australian law, Aero Digital Pty Ltd, its directors, officers and employees accept no liability for any loss, cost or damage arising from reliance on information provided by Navilot.
