The approach
Title registration follows the relevant estate authority and entitlement. Joint ownership, mortgages, heirs abroad and a proposed sale can each require additional work. The current Department of Lands and Surveys requirements should be checked for the particular application.
How we can help
- Review title and ownership information
- Identify the appropriate inheritance-registration route
- Coordinate the supporting documents
- Address proposed distribution and transfer questions
Prepare for a discussion
- Title deeds or property reference details
- Estate grant, will and inheritance evidence
- Information about charges and liabilities
- The proposed distribution, if agreed
How fees and timing are established
The office first reviews the people, assets, documents and jurisdictions involved. It can then confirm the proposed scope of work, how fees will be calculated and any payment stages before substantive work begins. No fee or outcome is implied by this website.
Timing depends on the documents available, the authority required, the institutions involved, property-registration steps, overseas evidence and whether anything is disputed. After the initial review, the office can identify the immediate steps and the factors likely to affect the timetable.
