What a Section 73 Certificate Means for Burwood Projects
A Section 73 Compliance Certificate confirms that a developer has made the necessary arrangements with Sydney Water for water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure.
It verifies that:
-
Adequate water supply is available for the lot.
-
Sewerage infrastructure meets the demand of the new development.
-
Developer charges and environmental levies are settled.
-
All required physical works have been constructed.
Without a Section 73 Certificate, your subdivision cannot be legally registered.

-
Developing a multi-dwelling property.

Common Burwood Section 73 Questions
How long does a Section 73 application take?
The timeframe varies depending on the complexity of the requirements, but typically ranges from 4 to 12 weeks once all information is provided.
Can construction begin without a Section 73 Certificate?
While physical building construction can often start, you cannot register your subdivision or finalise your titles without the final Compliance Certificate.
Do I need engineering plans for a Section 73 application?
Yes, most applications require detailed hydraulic or civil engineering plans to demonstrate how the new lots will connect to existing networks.
Section 73 Applications Built Around Burwood Developers
Every project in Burwood is a little different, and the approval side is rarely the same twice. Existing infrastructure, servicing, site conditions and the requirements of Sydney Water and council all shape what needs to happen and when. Our role is to work through Section 73 subdivision applications with you early, so the requirements are understood before the design is locked in. That means fewer surprises, fewer reworks and a much smoother run through approval for your Burwood project.
We have guided projects of all sizes through the approval process, and that experience shows in how quickly we spot the issues that matter on a Burwood project. We catch the things that cause delays and deal with them before they become a problem, so you get a clear picture of your obligations and a practical plan to meet them.
The Process, Step by Step
We assess what your Burwood project needs, check it against the relevant requirements, and map out exactly what has to happen and in what order. The goal is simple: give you a clear, workable path to approval so your project keeps moving without unexpected hold-ups.
