Tomkinson has extensive experience in the preparation of building subdivision plans – from unit developments with two or more lots and specialising in staged multi-level apartment and mixed use complexes comprising hundreds of units and multiple owners corporations.

The developments can be of existing or proposed buildings and can be of residential, commercial, industrial or mixed use nature.

Projects include:

• Northbank complex, Flinders Street Melbourne

• Royal Domain Tower, St Kilda Road Melbourne

• Flinders Wharf Apartments, Siddeley Street, Docklands

• Uni@Swanston Student Apartments, Swanston St., Carlton

• Student Apartments; 224 and 390 Burwood Hwy., Burwood

• Jarrah Heights Residential Apartments, McKimmies Road, Bundoora

Preparation of building subdivision plans involves far more than just drawing a boundary line around each unit.

Because of the tendency to sell building subdivisions ‘off the plan’ and the difficulty inherent in amending signed contracts it is important that the major decisions regarding the structure of owners’ corporations, boundary placement, amounts of entitlement and liability applying to lots and the ownership of car parking areas are made and incorporated into the plan of subdivision and owners corporation schedules before selling commences. Tomkinson has many years of experience in coordinating the developer, solicitor, agents and consultants to work through the various issues.

Tomkinson can commence work on the subdivision plan for a building shortly after architect’s plans are underway and provide draft plans for inclusion in contracts of sale. Plans are finalised upon completion of construction and we continue to provide support and advice right through to registration of titles.
