What are the biggest mistakes developers make in land development certification?
The biggest mistake is starting the certification process too late. Developers often wait until the final stages of their project, only to realise that crucial approvals were needed earlier. This leads to costly delays, unexpected expenses, and last-minute scrambling to meet compliance requirements.
How has the certification process changed over the past few years?
Land certification has shifted away from council-controlled approvals, giving developers more flexibility. Private certifiers now handle many approvals, reducing red tape and shortening wait times.
Future Outlook: The industry will continue moving toward digital processes and streamlined assessments, making it easier for developers who stay informed
What causes certification delays, and how can they be avoided?
The most common cause of delays is appointing a certifier too late. Missing documentation, incomplete applications, and misunderstandings about regulations can also stall approvals.
How to avoid delays:
- Engage a certifier at the DA approval stage.
- Ensure all required documents are submitted upfront.
What’s the difference between Torrens Title and Strata Subdivision?
Torrens Title is used for standalone properties where each lot has direct land ownership. Strata Subdivision is for multi-dwelling developments with shared spaces, such as apartments or townhouses.
When to choose which:
- Torrens Title: Best for projects with separate land ownership.
Strata Subdivision: Ideal for developments with shared structures.
What compliance tips can save developers time and money?
Securing Section 73 or 307 certificates early is crucial to avoid last-minute hold-ups. Also, working with an experienced certifier prevents costly mistakes.
Time and cost-saving strategies:
- Apply for necessary certificates early.
- Double-check zoning and infrastructure requirements.
- Partner with a knowledgeable certifier to avoid compliance errors.
What challenges do regional developers face compared to metro developers?
Regional developers often deal with limited infrastructure, unpredictable council approvals, and labour shortages. In contrast, metro developers face higher costs and stricter zoning laws.
How to navigate regional challenges:
- Plan for service limitations like water and sewer connections.
- Work with experienced certifiers familiar with regional requirements.
