An identification survey provides a detailed assessment of a property’s boundaries, structures, and any legal encumbrances affecting the land. It is prepared and signed by a registered surveyor to confirm the relationship between structures and property boundaries.
Identification surveys typically include:
The survey is accompanied by a report and plan sketch outlining all relevant site details. These documents are essential for legal purposes, property transactions, and ensuring compliance with local council regulations.
An identification survey provides clarity and protects your investment when dealing with property purchases, sales, development, or legal matters.
Some of the most common reasons to obtain an identification survey include:
Before committing to a purchase, it is essential to confirm there are no boundary disputes, encroachments, or unapproved structures on the land. An identification survey provides peace of mind that what is shown on the Land Title matches the physical property.
An identification survey helps demonstrate to prospective buyers that the property boundaries, improvements, and legal restrictions are clearly defined and accurate.
When planning new works such as extensions, fences, retaining walls, or secondary dwellings, an identification survey confirms existing boundaries and prevents costly mistakes or disputes.
An identification survey is often required when applying for a Building Information Certificate, finalising development works, or addressing compliance issues with local council or certifiers.
Whether it’s a single dwelling or a large commercial development, set out surveys give all parties (including builders, engineers, and certifiers) the confidence to proceed without second-guessing critical measurements.
