BUYING & SELLING SOLUTIONS // TITLE INTERROGATION // PRODUCT
TitleChecker® identifies elements of the title that require attention and where possible will suggest a solution to enable the transaction to proceed. The report is split into three sections:
  1. PROPERTY DETAIL - Land Registry title, e.g. tenure or grade of title.
  2. OWNERSHIP - Matters affecting the proprietor's legal and/or beneficial interest e.g. a caution or notice.
  3. USE - matters affecting the proprietor's intended use of the property, e.g. restrictive covenants or mineral rights.
TitleChecker® offers a summarised result for each of the above sections, itemised clearly at the top of the report. The overview analysis of each component is listed below. Where the report requires attention or is critical, details from the OC1 and CML Handbook are provided.

Validated / No Entry On Title

  

The aspect of the title complies with the CML Handbook Part 1 and Part 2 (where lender is identified) and/or there are no adverse matters on the title.

Attention Required

  

There may be a discrepancy between the instructed information compared to the title OR this element of the title is deemed adverse.

Critical
