"Subdivision" means to divide land or a property into two or more portions. A Subdivision application is applicable on land within the urban development boundaries. Subdivisions within urban areas are often also called 'infill-development' or 'densification'.

A subdivision application can be lodged to Council if a property owner decides to cut off an unused part of his/her property to have it registered apart from the original house. The new subdivided portion(s) needs to be registered with the Deeds Office by a Conveyancer. The newly created portion/property can then be sold-off or developed by the property owner.

Property owners must note that the subdivision process is time consuming and can be expensive. The best route for any property owner is to appoint a professional town planner right from the start. A town planner will assess the subject property and offer thorough guidance on the feasibility of dividing a property.
