When a fence, shed or garden has occupied land beyond a legal title boundary for at least 15 years, the occupying party may be entitled to formally claim that land. In Victoria, the claim requires actual, open, exclusive and continuous use of the land for that period without the owner's authorisation. A licensed surveyor must conduct a boundary survey, prepare an abstract of field records and produce the documentation needed for lodgement through Land Use Victoria alongside a solicitor. Linear Land Surveying has guided Melbourne and Victorian landowners through adverse possession claims with accurate boundary evidence and clear documentation throughout.
