A duplex in Schofields depends heavily on the block, because the suburb mixes established lots with new-release land around a growing station precinct. Lots run a wide 300 to 550m2 of R2, so most sit under the Blacktown 600m2 minimum, with the larger established blocks the ones that can qualify. On a $850K to $1.1M market in a fast-growing corridor, a qualifying block carries a duplex, but many will not.
Where a block does clear the minimum, the ground is moderately to highly reactive clay, so footings and the slab are engineered to suit across both dwellings. The newer stock is past the asbestos era, while older established homes may need a strip-out, so I confirm the era first. A side-by-side works once the frontage checks out.
What I would check first on your Schofields block: the area against 600m2, because most fall short, then whether it is established or a release lot.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Send me the block and I will tell you honestly whether it qualifies.

Established blocks qualify, release lots often don't
Schofields lots run a wide 300 to 550m2, so most sit under the Blacktown 600m2 minimum.
The larger established blocks are the ones that can clear it, so the area check comes before anything else.
Reactive clay, era-dependent demolition
Where a block qualifies, the moderately to highly reactive clay means engineered footings and slab on both dwellings.
Newer stock is asbestos-free; an older established home may need a strip-out, which I confirm first.
