DA vs CDC: What’s Right for Your Eastern Creek Project?

Whether it’s a Development Application (DA) or a Complying Development Certificate (CDC), we’ll guide you in finding the fastest and most compliant approval pathway—anywhere in New South Wales.

Here’s a quick breakdown to help you understand the difference:

DA (Development Application):

  • Required for townhouses, multi-dwelling housing, or projects near industrial zones.

  • Needed where variations to standard setbacks or environmental overlays apply.

CDC (Complying Development Certificate):

  • Suitable for straightforward residential homes, duplexes, and extensions.

  • Offers faster approval for compliant projects under zoning rules.
