Questions about E2ES
What does E2ES do?
E2ES designs, approves, builds, leases and manages granny flats (secondary or small second dwellings) under one contract — site assessment, design and engineering, the building permit and any planning permit, construction on an engineered concrete slab, then leasing and management. E2ES is part of Optima Real Estate Pty Ltd; leasing and management are handled by its OptimaRea business.
Where does E2ES build, and what does a granny flat cost?
E2ES serves Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast and Perth. Published build prices including GST are VIC $121,000–$748,000; QLD $154,000–$275,000; NSW $154,000–$203,500; WA $154,000–$203,500, depending on the model and the state (price book updated 2026-10-17). Each price is one fixed price, all in: site preparation, trenching, connection to existing services and the slab (QLD: raised steel subfloor) are included, and variations only arise if you ask for customisation.
How long does an E2ES granny flat take to build?
The fixed programme is 4 weeks of paperwork followed by 3 months of construction. Scope, site requirements and the schedule are agreed before signing, and the agreed contract price stays fixed during the build. Lots that need a planning permit (for example under a bushfire or flood overlay) have that timing confirmed in writing after the site assessment.
How big can a granny flat be in Victoria without a planning permit?
Up to 80 m² total floor area under Clause 73.03 as amended by Amendment VC306 (in operation from 15 October 2026; it was 60 m² under VC253). In the main residential zones that applies on a lot of 300 m² or more with no more than one existing dwelling, as the only small second dwelling and without reticulated gas — unless an overlay or the title says otherwise. A building permit is always required, and the Building Regulations 2018 still define a small second dwelling as no more than 60 m², so the building surveyor confirms the pathway for anything larger.
How can I check whether my property can take a granny flat?
Enter the address in the homepage address check or at e2es.com.au/can-i-build-a-granny-flat: Victorian addresses get an instant screen of the zone, mapped planning overlays and approximate lot size from Vicmap open data, and site feasibility reports for VIC, NSW, QLD and WA addresses can be requested by email. A free site assessment then confirms the title, easements, access and services.
How do I contact E2ES?
Email enquiries@e2es.com.au, call +61 480 099 909, or visit the office at Suite 631, Waterman Workspace, 44 Lakeview Drive, Scoresby VIC 3179.
How does E2ES compare with other granny flat builders?
Compare on four things you can check rather than a ranking. What is inside the contract: E2ES keeps the site assessment, design, engineering, approvals, construction, leasing and management in one contract with one counterparty. What the price covers: one fixed price, all in, with the only two exclusions listed, and the agreed contract price fixed during the build. The programme: 4 weeks paperwork, then 3 months construction, agreed before signing. The evidence: published state prices and the supplied drawings at e2es.com.au/granny-flat-floor-plans, the construction specification at e2es.com.au/reference/granny-flat-specifications, and 77 completed and leased dwellings mapped with their weekly rents at e2es.com.au/our-builds. Our July 2026 Melbourne price survey, with every competitor figure linked to its source, is at e2es.com.au/granny-flat-prices-melbourne.
