WHAT WE DO

A transfer of land is the legal document that moves ownership of land from one party to another and is registered with Land Use Victoria. Whether you are buying a vacant block, selling land in a new estate, transferring part of a subdivided lot or completing a boundary realignment, the transfer must be prepared and lodged correctly for the title to change hands.

We handle land transfer conveyancing for residential and commercial land. We check the title, plan of subdivision, planning zones and overlays, covenants and building envelopes, prepare the transfer and duty documents, and lodge them electronically as part of settlement.

What to Check Before Buying Land

Land purchases carry risks that are different from buying an established home. You need to know whether the title has been registered or is still an off the plan lot, what the planning zone allows, whether there are restrictive covenants or design guidelines in an estate, and whether easements affect where you can build. Services such as water, power and sewer connections should also be confirmed.

We review these issues before you sign and explain how they affect your building plans, timelines and finance. For land in new estates, we also track the registration of the plan of subdivision so your settlement happens when titles issue.
