Plain English

A Unit Title Assessment Report (UTAR) is a report that checks whether a completed development is ready to be converted into separate unit titles. A qualified Unit Title Assessor inspects the completed building and confirms that it has been built in accordance with the approved plans and Development Approval.The UTAR helps the ACT planning authority determine whether the unit title application can proceed. It is submitted together with other required documents, such as the Units Plan prepared by a registered surveyor, before separate unit titles can be created.
