SA Wide Conveyancing can assist with your land division and will help guide you through the process. We are experienced in Torrens Title and Community Divisions and are able to provide tips about the preferred type of division. We work closely with builders and developers throughout South Australia which means we are able to point you in the right direction to make sure you maximise your profits. 

​

Before you start the process, you should contact the relevant Council authority and enquire about planning requirements. It is important to undertake your own due diligence and make sure you are not overcapitalising on your investment. Become familiar with the area you are intending to subdivide and research the median house prices and the type of demographic you will likely be attracting. Speak to a Real Estate Agent to obtain an idea of the expected sale price for the land after you subdivide. If you want to develop and sell, then speak to a builder so that you know exactly what your investment will cost before you begin. It is important to discuss your project with you accountant, surveyor and conveyancer before you start. This way you can ensure you purchase the original parcel of land in the correct entity to maximise your profits and minimise your tax liability.

Types of Land Divisions

Torrens Title Division

A Torrens title is a single certificate of title for an allotment of land. It is the most common type of title in South Australia

​

Community Division

Community Titles is the division of land into at least two Lots and Common Property in a manner similar to Strata Titles

If you intend to develop (build) it will be your responsibility to arrange for new NBN points to each new block of land. You or your builder may apply for the new points online through the NBN Co website.
