A Community Title Land Division involves dividing land into individual allotments (lots) along with areas of shared Common Property. Each lot receives its own Certificate of Title, which means it can be bought, sold, or mortgaged just like a Torrens Title allotment.

The key difference is the inclusion of Common Property, which may include:

• Shared driveways or access roads
• Garden or recreation areas
• Infrastructure such as water, electricity, gas, and sewer services

Boundaries for each lot in a Community Division are defined by dimensions (bearings and distances), similar to Torrens Title divisions.

Community Titles are highly flexible and can be used in a wide variety of developments, including:

• Residential developments (townhouses, units, shared driveways)
• Commercial or industrial premises
• Agricultural, viticultural, and horticultural projects
• Large estates with multiple lots and shared facilities

This flexibility makes Community Titles an attractive option for both small-scale developments and major projects across Adelaide and South Australia.
