You can order deposited plans and sublease plans for properties in the Australian Capital Territory through Landchecker. These plan documents provide essential information about land measurements, boundaries and lease arrangements.
What are ACT Plan Documents?
Deposited Plan
A deposited plan shows the measurements and boundaries of land areas for a property in the ACT. This document includes property dimensions, lot boundaries and other survey details.
Sublease Plan
A sublease plan shows the area of land or property leased by the registered proprietor of a crown lease to another individual or company. This document provides details about subleased portions of crown land.
