Selling land to builders, including untitled land

How to sell vacant land, knock-down-rebuild sites or untitled estate lots to builders in Australia.

Updated November 2026By the Nominate My Property team

Key points

  • Builders buy vacant lots, knock-down-rebuild sites and subdividable blocks.
  • Untitled land in new estates may be sold before titles are issued, if the contract allows.
  • Clear information on the lot's size, orientation and covenants helps builders decide quickly.

What builders buy

  • Titled vacant lots ready to build on
  • Lots in new estates that have not yet titled
  • Older homes on good-sized blocks for knock-down-rebuild
  • Blocks with subdivision or dual-occupancy potential

Selling land that hasn't titled yet

If you bought a lot in a new estate and titles have not been issued, you may be able to nominate a buyer or assign your contract before settlement, depending on your contract and the developer's consent. Read our guide on selling before settlement.

Information builders want

  • Lot size, frontage, depth and orientation
  • Estate design guidelines and covenants
  • Expected title date and any building deadlines
  • Services, easements and site conditions

How we help

Our agents connect your land with builders actively looking for sites, and our marketing team presents the information builders need to move quickly.
