State Surveys Boundary Surveys

Whether you have a boundary dispute, want to divide land into new allotments or create an entire new housing estate our licensed surveyors and professional staff can provide the appropriate solution to ensure your project is successful.


Boundary peg Boundary Identification (re-marking of boundaries)

A boundary identification survey provides you the means of identifying where your property boundaries are in relation to physical monuments such as fences and buildings.

As a part of all boundary identification surveys State Surveys undertakes, our drafting team will prepare an identification certificate showing where the true boundaries are in relation to your fences. The certificate will also clearly delineate where our surveyors have placed survey marks to assist you in re-locating the boundaries at a later date.




Land Divisions

Sub-dividing land is a complex process that takes time. A proposal involves many professionals and government agencies including surveyors, engineers, conveyancers, State and local Governments and infrastructure companies such as SA Water.

Knowing how all of these organisations work together to process your land division can be confusing. That's why we have put together this step-by-step guide. We hope this guide will assist you in understanding the land division process and make your project an enjoyable one.

Land can currently be divided in South Australia in three separate ways;

  • Torrens Title Land Division (for example a standard suburban home)
  • Community Land Division (for example detached units)
  • Community Strata Division (multiple level apartments and office complexes)


  • Land may also be leased for many purposes including shops, offices and telecommunications towers.
