Land Subdivision Services

Scoping and feasibility

A feasibility study can provide you with advice on the subdivision rules applicable to your land and your corresponding subdivision options. We can ensure what you are proposing is viable and advise on opportunities that will maximise returns.

Planning and resource consent

We can advise you whether your plans require a resource consent in the form of a subdivision consent or land use consent or both. If so, we will obtain the relevant consent on your behalf.

• You will need a subdivision consent whether you wish to alter your current boundary or carry out a large multi-lot development.

The necessary Cadastral Survey Dataset (CSD) is then created in Landonline and submitted for ‘Survey Approval’ once Council certifications are issued.

Council approvals

Under sections 223 and 224c of the Resource Management Act 1991, two Council approvals are required to confirm that your subdivision complies with the conditions of the resource consent granted. We have established relationships with local Council facilitating ease of approvals, enabling the development to be completed.
