A boundary adjustment is when you exchange land between sites. It is common between neighbours when they want to move a boundary. Boundary Adjustments are undertaken for a raft of reasons and some previous projects that we have been involved in have included:

  • Landowners wishing to change boundaries to achieve more efficient grazing
  • Moving boundaries to reflect occupation or fences and buildings out of position
  • Boundary changes to enable vehicular access to a rear site
  • Land ownership changes to align with natural boundaries or features
  • Landowners wishing to increase their landholding to build a tennis court
  • And many more

A boundary adjustment is a form a subdivision often how it is treated by council depends on the net total of land [if any] being transferred – whether it exceeds 10% of the original site area will determine often determine the subdivision application status.

Our expert team can talk you through the options, risks, pitfalls and sometimes inform you of other options such as granting easements or other concessions to achieve the desired outcomes.
