Changes in Queensland legislation came into effect 26 September 2022. The changes made emergency allowances to combat the rental crisis and mean that eligible secondary dwellings will be able to be rented to non-family members.

Prior to this the only person you could rent a granny flat to was an immediate family member. Hence the fitting term of ‘granny flat’.

The Planning (Secondary Dwellings) Amendment Regulation 2022 (Qld) made amendments to the Planning Regulation 2017 (Qld) and is intended to be reviewed after 3 years.
