How we help you to subdivide and renovate
We hear your plans
We offer an all-inclusive fixed fee subdivision package which includes all conveyancing work such as registration of land titles and liaising with your lender.
- Tell us about your subdivision plans.
- There are a wide range of Victoria-based subdivision projects that we can assist with, ranging from your two-lot subdivision to multi-lot subdivision, subdivisions involving a NICO transfer or subdivisions forming an owner’s corporation to manage the common property areas.
- Each property project is its own, so let us know what your circumstances are so we can guide you through the processes.
We handle the paperwork
The process for subdivision:
- Once we have obtained the necessary information from you or your surveyor, we will prepare the required documents to ensure the subdivisional plan can be successfully lodged.
- This process may involve speaking with your lender on Title and/or caveators to ensure that they too, consent to the registration of the new proposed subdivision plan.
- We will then lodge your application for the registration of the new subdivision Plan with the Victorian Registry office. Once the subdivision plan is registered, each Lot will have its own identification number, also known as a volume and folio number. You can now deal with each new Lot as you wish.

Frequently asked questions
What costs are not covered by our service fees?
We will lodge the documents after all required documents are provided by your surveyors. When processing the lodgement, a lodgement fee charged by the Land Titles office is not covered by our service fee as this fee is dependent on the size of your development and whether an Owner’s Corporation is being created. The lodgement fee is the payment to the Land Titles Office for registering the proposed plan and issuing the new titles. If there is a bank involved, some banks might levy bank charges for issuing your title for subdivision use.
