The purpose of the certificate of title
Certificate of Title and Land Title are interchangeable terms referring to land titling, which is the transfer of a plot from the previous owner to you, particularly relevant when purchasing off-the-plan from a developer. Titles, or Land Titles, serve as legal documents issued by governments, detailing lot specifics and owner information. The primary purpose of a Land Title is to prove the land ownership of a piece of land to a particular person. Similar to a driver’s licence or passport, a Land Title is a legal document that includes a description of the land, the owners of the property and registered interests that may affect the land.
