Cadastral Surveys are surveys carried out to distinguish, map, and dene property boundaries for the issuance of legal ownership titles.
Cadastral Survey encompass a range of services including the subdivision, alienation and amalgamation of land, buildings, or developments. The subdivision of land is a crucial legal planning procedure which includes breaking up of an alienated land held under one nal title.
Cadastral Surveys are utilised by land owners, property developers, insurance companies to full legal requirements. In regard to any cial property transactions, cial entities such as solicitors and government agencies will refer to data gathered from Cadastral surveys for the determination of the legal ownership specic area.
In Malaysia, in order to conduct subdivision, an application must be made to the Land Administrator, alongside a plan of the land including details of subdivision and consent from other authority such as a person or body having an interest in the land. A certied Land Surveyor is typically required to prepare the plan for subdivision and other details needed for the planning and documentation procedure. This process needs the acceptance of regional authorities and the proof that the subdivided land has appropriate utilities such as the supply of water and power.
Strata Surveys are essential for multi-level apartment buildings or complexes with shared areas, where each unit is separately owned. These surveys provide the necessary documentation for legal processes like ownership transfers, sales, and purchases, helping to set up the division of units and calculation of fees. They ensure the buyer’s rights are protected by including the Strata plan in the property’s legal documents.
Without a Strata Title, managing property transactions, ownership changes, or building management can become complicated. Conducted with a deep understanding of local laws and extensive experience, Strata Surveys help smoothly manage property ownership and shared responsibilities in such developments.
Each unit in high rise developments has legally documented strata titles with strata boundaries dened by strata surveys. Property Owners, Property Developers, and Joint Management Bodies need Strata Surveys for accurate subdivision of shared areas. The Property and Infrastructure industry, project consultants, contractors, engineers, architects, as well as the Government agencies such as the Land Oce and local authorities utilise Strata Title Surveys.
For new developments, the developer must submit the proposed strata plan within three months of the issuance of the certication of super-structure stage. Upon submission of proposed strata plan by the licensed surveyor, The Department Survey and Mapping Malaysia will approve the proposed strata plan. Henceforth, the developer, through its licensed surveyor, is required to submit to the Land Oce the application for the strata title within one month from the date of approval.
