Verge landscaping is to be completed by homeowners. Some homeowners may be eligible for free front landscaping which includes the verge, as part of their land purchase at Fort Largs. Please refer to your Land Contract for further details. All verge maintenance responsibilities fall to the homeowner, in accordance with Council’s policies.

Encumbrances?
Does the encumbrance still apply now that Fort Largs is sold out?
Yes, the encumbrance still applies and is being managed and administered by Peet for the time being. All land owners are required to seek encumbrance approval for their house plans by contacting Peet directly. Additionally, the lift and replace approval process for property transfers is still required. Through this process, the Fort Largs encumbrance is lifted from the current land title, and replaced onto the new title with the new owner’s details. Your conveyancer will typically arrange this process with on your behalf. You will need to allow a minimum of 14 days for a lift and replace approval to be granted. Please note that this can hold up settlement of the property if the encumbrance has not been met, or if you do not provide sufficient time or documentation to approve the lift and replace.
You can contact the Fort Largs Encumbrance Team at fortlargs.encumbrances@peet.com.au
