What We Provide

◈

Surveyor Appointment

Appointment of a registered land surveyor through competitive bidding We appoint a qualified and registered land surveyor on behalf of the client through a transparent competitive bidding process to prepare all technical survey documentation required for the title processing exercise, including the preparation of deed plans and any other survey records required by the Land Registry. All surveyor fees are settled from the client's account as instructed.

◈

Physical Planner

Appointment of a registered physical planner for planning compliance We engage a registered Physical Planner on behalf of the client through competitive bidding to ensure that the development fully complies with all applicable physical planning regulations, development control standards, and zoning requirements, and to advise on and manage any change of user or development permission applications required in connection with the title processing exercise.

◈

Lawyer Appointment

All advocate fees are settled from the client's account as instructed.

◈

Floor Plans

Preparation and review of unit floor plans and layout drawings We follow up and coordinate the preparation of detailed floor plans for each individual unit in the development, prepared by the appointed surveyor in the form required by the Land Registry for the registration of sectional titles or long-term leases. All floor plans are reviewed for accuracy and completeness, and for consistency with the approved architectural drawings, prior to submission to the relevant authorities.

◈

Change of User Applications

Management of land use change applications where required Where the proposed use of the development differs from the existing or approved land use in the title deed or planning consent, we manage the preparation and submission of a formal change of user application to the relevant county government physical planning authority on behalf of the client. We follow up diligently on all pending change of user applications and address any requisitions or conditions raised by the approving authority until the necessary approval is obtained.

◈

Deed Plans

Preparation of final deed plans for submission to the Land Registry Following the receipt of all necessary planning and regulatory approvals, we coordinate the preparation of the final deed plans by the appointed land surveyor in the prescribed form required for submission to and registration at the Land Registry. All deed plans are reviewed for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with the Land Registry requirements prior to formal submission, and we follow up to ensure timely processing and registration.

◈

New Title Granting

Securing individual title deeds for each unit in the development We ensure the formal granting of new individual title deeds for each unit in the development at the Land Registry, coordinating between the appointed land surveyor, the conveyancing advocate, and the Land Registry to complete all registration requirements in an efficient and timely manner. All fees and outgoings associated with the granting of new titles are settled from the client's account, and the original title documents for each unit are delivered to the client or the client's nominated representative upon completion.

◈

Fees and Outgoings

Settlement of all government and professional fees from the client's account We settle all fees and outgoings associated with the title processing exercise from the client's designated account, including all Land Registry registration fees, government stamp duties and statutory charges, surveyor fees, Physical Planner fees, advocate fees, and any other costs incurred in the course of the exercise. Full records of all payments made are maintained and reported to the client in the regular statements of account.
