What is a Subdivision Plan?

A Subdivision Plan is a critical document that legally defines how a parcel of land is divided into two or more lots. Once prepared by a Registered Surveyor, this plan is lodged with NSW Land Registry Services (LRS) to create new land titles for each lot.

Subdivision Plans are required for a range of projects, including:

  • Dual occupancy developments
  • Torrens Title and Strata Title subdivisions
  • Creating separate titles for investment or sale
  • Large-scale residential or commercial developments
  • Rural land subdivisions
  • Boundary adjustments

Without an approved and accurately prepared subdivision plan, you cannot legally separate or sell portions of land. Our experienced team ensures your plan is prepared to the highest standard, so you can progress your project without unnecessary delays or costly errors.

Why Building Set Out Surveys Matter

A building set out survey is essential to the integrity and legality of any construction project. It ensures that construction takes place exactly where it should; avoiding encroachment onto neighbouring properties, non-compliance with development approvals, or costly structural corrections down the line.

Here’s why a professional set out survey is so important:

1
Feasibility Assessment

Before starting, it’s essential to assess whether your land is suitable for subdivision based on zoning, size, and local council regulations. Our team can assist by reviewing site constraints and subdivision potential.

2
Detail & Contour Survey

A comprehensive survey of the existing land features, boundaries, structures, and levels is required. This forms the foundation for your subdivision design and council application.

3
Subdivision Concept Plan

We prepare an initial lot layout plan showing how the land will be divided. This includes lot sizes, boundaries, easements, and access points, ensuring the design complies with council requirements.

4
Development Application (DA)

Most subdivision projects in NSW require a DA to be lodged with your local council. We assist with the preparation of your application, including required plans and supporting documents.

5
Council or Certifier Approval

Once your DA is approved or your subdivision certifier grants consent, the formal Plan of Subdivision can be prepared by our Registered Surveyors.

6
Plan of Subdivision & 88B Documentation

We prepare your final Deposited Plan, which clearly defines the new lots, boundaries, and any easements or restrictions (set out in 88B documents) required for services or access.

7
Lodgement & Registration with LRS

The completed Subdivision Plan is lodged with NSW Land Registry Services. Once registered, new land titles are created for each lot, legally enabling sale, development, or ownership transfer.

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.
