Whether you are a developer splitting a large block into a multi-unit estate, or a landowner merging multiple adjoining titles into a single allotment, navigating Land Use Victoria's requirements can be highly complex. Our specialized conveyancing service manages the entire legal process to ensure your new titles are issued without unnecessary delays.
This service involves:
- Liaising with Your Licensed Land Surveyor: The subdivision or consolidation process begins with a surveyor drafting the physical plans. We work directly with your surveyor through the SPEAR (Streamlined Planning and Electronic Applications and Referrals) system to ensure all legal boundaries, easements, and common property allocations match the legal paperwork perfectly.
- Securing Bank & Mortgagee Consent: If you have an existing mortgage on the property, your bank or broker must formally consent to the subdivision or consolidation. We handle the complex process of requesting your financial institution to produce the existing Certificate of Title and approve the plan, ensuring your financing remains compliant and secure throughout the restructure.
- Drafting and Reviewing Legal Documentation: We prepare all necessary legal documents required by Land Use Victoria. This includes drafting any new restrictions, covenants, or owners corporation rules, and ensuring that any existing encumbrances are properly transferred or removed from the new titles.
- Lodgement and Registration: Once council approvals and bank consents are secured, we formally lodge the plan of subdivision or consolidation for registration. We monitor the application closely, swiftly resolving any requisitions or queries raised by the titles office to finalize your new individual Certificates of Title as quickly as possible.
