This module will consider selected issues in subdivisions across a range of tenure types, including attention to cross lease conversion, freeholding of unit titles, and overlapping property rights. It will provide the perspectives of both a surveyor and a property lawyer in considering a number of examples which highlight best practice and pitfalls to avoid.

The module will cover:

  • How lawyers and surveyors can work collaboratively through the subdivision process
  • The role of the surveyor in subdivision – surveyor? designer? project manager?
  • Spatial considerations for subdivisions – a practical guide
  • Conversion of cross leases and unit titles to fee simple
  • Issues arising from case law.

Learning objectives

By completing this module you will:

  • Gain clarity about different roles in a subdivision process.
  • Consider the factors involved in a successful conversion project.
  • Hear about different perspectives on cross lease conversion and freeholding issues.
  • Reflect on technical issues involved in subdivisions.

Introduction

Within the topic of “subdivisions”, there are many sub-topics to consider. A paper delivered by a lawyer is unlikely to be able to usefully comment on civil works, engineering approvals, or even on survey matters, which is why this session combines survey and legal perspectives. Even from a “legal” perspective, the various sub-topics might include:

• what is a subdivision (in legal terms);
• legislation relating to subdivisions;
• different types of subdivision;
• effective project management of subdivisions (along with other professionals, such as surveyors);
• e-dealing issues;
• preparation of documents such as easements and covenants.


The topic of “subdivisions” very quickly becomes large, and outside the scope of half a webinar. As such, this paper focuses on two key issues: the conversion of cross-leases, and the conversion of unit titles. However, brief comments on other topics are also made.
