Title registration is the step prior to settlement where the LUMA team lodges the plan of your townhome with Land Use Victoria to enable a certificate of title to be registered and create a title of your property with the Victorian Government.  This typically occurs 2 - 3 weeks prior to settlement and your conveyancer will be provided with title details once registration occurs.

Estimated settlement timeframe

March - April 2025

The new “Settlement and Handover Process” bar chart can be found on your respective lot group page. Please hover over the milestones for more details.

In the coming weeks, we will also be adding key information about your home by introducing the “Key Documents” section on the LUMA Connect portal.
