Hi,
I'm looking to buy my first investment property. It's an old 1950's brick house, on 650 square meters in Adelaide.
I just found out the title is a Community Title, shared with the house next door. Apparently 10 years ago the land (originally 1,000 square meters) had been community title divided and a new house built next door.
Could anyone give me a rough estimate of how much it would cost to convert from a community title to a torrens title? Has anyone been through this process before or could provide an insight into it?
Currently they share the same gas/elec meter and have a small strip of common land that is on my half of the subdivision, so its a bit of an inconvenience. I've also been told that i can't develop the property unless my neighbour agrees to it as well, which could be a pain in the future.
Thanks for your help,
