WHAT WE DO
Land and title transfers in South Yarra often involve subdivided terraces, boundary adjustments or small development sites. We handle land transfer conveyancing in South Yarra from our nearby St Kilda Road office.
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.

South Yarra is just minutes from our office at 470 St Kilda Road, so we are well placed to act for buyers and sellers across the suburb, from the apartment towers around Chapel Street, Toorak Road and Forrest Hill to the Victorian and Edwardian terraces in the quieter streets near the Botanic Gardens and Como Park.
Because the suburb sits across two councils, the City of Stonnington and the City of Melbourne, planning controls and rates can differ from one side of Punt Road to the other. Many South Yarra properties are part of an owners corporation, so we pay close attention to levies, building defect disputes and management arrangements. We also regularly act for clients in nearby Prahran, Toorak, Windsor and Melbourne 3004.
