Can I sign a Contract to sell my land before the subdivision is Complete?

Yes, however, there will have to be a special clause included in the Contract to reflect the division. Your Contract should also include a copy of the proposed division to ensure there is no confusion as to the land being sold and it’s dimensions. //Adcock’s will work with your Agent and assist them in preparing the Contract to ensure you are protected.

Does dividing land affect my Tax?

Any investment will inevitably have an affect on your tax situation and real estate is no different.

Before proceeding with any sale or purchase, you should seek the advice from a qualified taxation expert. Things that should be considered include: //Q is GST applicable
//Q who is to bear the CGT (if any)
//Q how is it to be financed
//Q should a family trust be used //Adcocks are not taxation experts or financial advisors; however we are more than willing to discuss with you or your accountant any issues you may have. If you do not have a taxation expert you can speak to, click here for our recommendation

Which suit me better, Community Title or Torrens Title?

The Council’s planning requirements, your long term objectives for the division and how many blocks you are creating will determine what sort of division is right for you. While a Community Title is generally cheaper initially, the on going costs and return when sold may mean it’s not right for you. Contact us to make a time to discuss your objectives.

Can I build before my subdivision is completed?

Typically yes, however, the type of development you are planning will determine if this is the case. Contact us to make a time to discuss your plan.

Can I subdivide my land?
