What is a Plan of Delimitation
A Plan of Delimitation is a cadastral survey that clarifies the position of existing property boundaries when legal records are unclear or disputed.
Key features of a Plan of Delimitation include:
- Investigation of historical deposited plans and survey records
- Re-establishment of boundary positions using field survey techniques
- Analysis of occupation evidence and survey marks
- Preparation of a formal Plan of Delimitation certified by a NSW Registered Land Surveyor
- PDF and CAD plan suitable for council, legal, or transaction purposes
Why a Plan of Delimitation is Critical
A professionally prepared Plan of Delimitation:
- Resolves boundary disputes between adjoining landowners
- Provides legally defensible boundary positions
- Prevents development delays and supports planning approvals
- Prepares properties for subdivision or development
- Aligns with NSW cadastral and Land Registry requirements
Across Sydney CBD, Northern Beaches, Wollongong, Sutherland Shire, and NSW, councils and legal authorities rely on clear delimitation plans to confirm property limits.
