Subdivision Contractors

Subdivision is the dividing of property into smaller lots. It involves processes that will legally alter property boundaries. It also includes the combination of two or more lots into a single property and the realignment of already existing property lines. Below are some types of subdivision:

• The adjustment of boundaries between two or more lots.
• The creation of new lots from existing properties.
• The creation or conversion of lots for strata development.
• The creation of strata lots as part of the strata plan phase.
• Land subdivision for three years or more lease term.
• Air space parcel subdivision.

Subdividing land can be costly, especially depending on how many plots you're planning on dividing. An average cost of dividing land into two plots is shown below:

• Total Town Planning Approval Cost: $10,497.00
• Total Construction Design Cost: $43,500.00 - 58,500.00
• Total Sealing Cost: $7,950.00
• OVERALL COST: $61,947.00 - 76,947.00 (incl. GST)

Please be advised that the costs listed above do not include the costs of acquiring the property, holding costs, etc. You should ask local subdivision companies in your area for more information about costs in your subdivision planning.

Most Australian states have the same three main factors that must be considered when planning to subdivide land.

• If the land has the correct 'zoning' to be subdivided
• If the land can meet state planning policies and criteria and;
• If the land also can meet any specific provisions for residential infill development in the local councils, Local Planning policies (LPP's).

But each local council of the state has its own policies for subdividing land. As part of your subdivision planning, it is recommended to visit your local state websites for these specific requirements and policies.
