Is a Title Re-Establishment Survey Necessary?
Do you require a specialist for the site establishment survey? Many Australian businesses and homeowners ponder upon this question – whether they actually need a title re-establishment survey and, if so, what purpose does it serve?
A re-establishment survey is needed:
- For building works
- For subdivisions
- When constructing a boundary fence
- To settle differences or examine encroachments
Before planning any development project on your property, from general building work to subdivisions or as simple as building a fence, get the facts checked or verified by a professional land surveyor. The title boundary survey and the site analysis plan explain the fact, and once you have them, you are aware of your strengths and weaknesses.
A site establishment survey before construction or moving ahead on your project can help save money and time. It will ensure that you don’t move too far forward only to discover that you have to actually move quite far back. Furthermore, title advice will help you understand your property more clearly and get the facts straight from the start.
A title boundary survey is typically used either by itself or in conjunction with a features and levels survey (if using an architect). When both surveys are combined, you get a complete picture of the property.

How Much Does a Title Boundary
Survey Cost in Melbourne?
The cost of the title boundary survey varies from project to project across several factors. This could include the type of property being examined, its features, and how your land surveyor charges.
Title boundary surveys cannot be priced at a fixed rate because no two surveying jobs are the same. A smaller parcel of land with no vegetation will have a different cost for the border survey than a larger parcel of land with a lot of vegetation. As a result, there are numerous factors to take into account when estimating the cost of a boundary line survey.
Among them are:
- Site location
- Research and travel time
- Shape, size, and dimensions of the parcel land
- Accessibility and terrain of parcel land required to be surveyed
- Reason for survey
- Seasonal variations of the land
- The type of equipment used and more

The boundary re-establishment survey is the procedure used by surveyors to re-establish a property boundary that has been lost or forgotten. It could be damaged due to natural and man-made occurrences. Additionally, it helps prevent future title issues.
The person who requests a boundary survey is responsible for paying its costs. Most frequently, a buyer of real estate who plans to buy the property and develop it later requests a boundary survey. A boundary survey aids the buyer in better decision-making, comprehending land divisions, negotiating, etc. On the other hand, a property seller may occasionally request a boundary survey in order to gather all pertinent data for potential buyers and expedite the selling process. In this case, the property seller pays for the survey. Additionally, there could be a title issue between neighbours about the boundary of their properties. If a survey is done in this situation, the cost is split between them.

To find out who is responsible for the boundaries, you need to check Title Register; further, if it is the case of unregistered property, you need to verify the Title Deeds. These will frequently outline the specific boundaries that you must uphold.
A land survey plan called a “Site Analysis Plan” is used to understand your site and its surroundings. This makes it possible for interested parties to recognise potential opportunities and constraints for a development site.
Before issuing the lender’s title insurance policy to a title company, some lenders require a survey or certification from a qualified surveyor. This isn’t always necessary, though. In new real estate transactions, the seller’s earlier survey is frequently used as well.
