HOW WE HELP YOU ACHIEVE YOUR STRATA SUBDIVISION

When you think of a Strata Subdivision, what do you think of? For many, their mind would go straight to a series of units, or apartments.

However, a Strata Subdivision can be used when you’re subdividing a dual occupancy, and there are certain elements that both properties share. A common driveway, for example.

Under a Strata Subdivision, each individual owner owns the land and building within their lot. Both parties in the Subdivision also jointly own any common property, and undertake joint responsibility for the maintenance and upkeep of all common areas—ideally, this helps to keep the peace between neighbours.

A Strata Subdivision is the best option when your aim is to create individual lot ownership and common property ownership, such as the example of a block of units, or manor housing. The result creates individual ownership of each unit and combined ownership of all the common property areas such as driveways and stairwells.

A Strata Subdivision requires approval through either a Development Application to Council or a Strata Certifier. So to make this process as fast, efficient, and hassle-free as possible, your first step should be to get in touch with us.

At CIVAC our goal is to streamline the process for you and make it easy for you to obtain approval for your Strata Subdivision. Our experienced team of Town Planners and Project Managers will manage the process on your behalf, and help guide you on the path to achieving your approval. You won’t have to do a thing.

So if you’re considering a Strata Subdivision for your block, make CIVAC your first point of call.

Here’s how we work with you to help you achieve your Strata Subdivision.

STARTING THE PROCESS

We meet with you to determine your needs

At CIVAC, our goal is to make your Strata Subdivision as smooth and as seamless as possible.

Our specialist team will meet with you initially to discuss your project. We’ll talk through your Subdivision plans, determine what you want to achieve, flag any potential issues that we see, and determine whether a Strata Subdivision is the appropriate pathway for your property.

Our highly experienced team of town planners and project managers will assess your site for strata subdivision possibilities and the most effective path to gaining approval.

And from here, it’s time to get started.

We then begin the process for your subdivision and connect you with our extended expert team to manage the application for you.

GETTING THE RIGHT INFORMATION

We begin the approvals process

Once our Town Planners determine that a Strata Subdivision is allowed on your property, we begin the approvals process for you

The process for a Strata Subdivision requires a lot of groundwork to be done, and there is a range of supporting documents that are needed to support its lodgement.

We offer a range of services that allow us to control the approval process in a cost and time-effective manner, these include:

Preliminary Strata Plan
Statement of Environmental Effects
Architectural Plans
Completion of forms and lodgement to Council or Strata Certifier

APPLICATION LODGEMENT

The final step in your Strata Subdivision

Once these plans, reports, and certificates are all prepared and collated, your Project Manager is ready to lodge your Strata Subdivision to your local Council on your behalf.

Your Project Manager will track and monitor your application, keeping you updated on its progress. They’re on call to answer any questions or queries regarding the project, and can respond to Council on your behalf with any additional information, if needed.

If there’s anything that requires further attention at this stage, we’ll take care of it for you.

All you need to do is wait for approval. When you receive it, it’s time to get started planning your new build.

YOUR STRATA SUBDIVISION IS APPROVED

Moving on to construction

Upon receiving Strata Subdivision approval, we can help you acquire the various approvals you need to see your new build come to life. These can include:

Development Application. A Development Application is typically required for large-scale projects like a new building construction, demolition and rebuild projects, substantial structural changes to existing premises, or even a change in business activities undertaken on your site.
Complying Development Certificate. A Complying Development Certificate is typically available for smaller building projects, or non-structural renovations and fit-outs to an existing building. Rather than going through multiple steps, a CDC combines both planning and construction approval into one single approval.
Construction Certificate. If you’re constructing a new commercial studio building, or making major additions or renovations to existing premises.
Occupation Certificate. An Occupation Certificate is required before you or any tenants can move in, and demonstrates that every element of your new development is up to code and complies with your approved plans.
