At Freedom Titles, we specialise in correcting defective titles to ensure your property’s details are accurate, up-to-date and legally sound.
Here’s how our process works:
Updating defective titles.
-
1. Comprehensive review
We begin with a thorough review of your current title to identify any defects or discrepancies. This could include boundary inaccuracies, outdated legal descriptions, or errors in recorded information. Our goal is to pinpoint all potential issues that could affect your property’s value or marketability.
-
2. Detailed boundary analysis
One common issue with defective titles is boundary inaccuracies. Our expert surveyors conduct a detailed analysis to confirm that the recorded boundaries align with the actual physical layout of your property. This step is crucial in preventing future disputes and ensuring your property is properly defined.
-
3. Correcting outdated information
Titles often contain outdated information, such as old easements, covenants, or restrictions that no longer apply. We meticulously review these elements and work to update or remove any information that could hinder your property’s current and future use. This ensures that your title accurately reflects the present condition and potential of your property.
-
4. Council and regulatory interactions
In cases where title corrections require council approval or other regulatory interactions, we handle these communications on your behalf. We submit the necessary documentation and follow through to ensure a smooth and timely resolution of any regulatory matters.
-
5. Final title update
After all corrections are made and approved, we oversee the final update of your title. This includes registering the corrected title with the appropriate authorities, ensuring that your property’s details are officially recognised and recorded accurately.
-
6. Legal adjustments
Once all discrepancies are identified, our team will make the necessary legal adjustments. This may involve drafting new documents, amending existing records, or coordinating with local authorities to update public records. We ensure that all legal requirements are met and that your title is fully compliant with current regulations.
-
7. Enhanced property value and marketability
With your title now accurate and up-to-date, your property is better positioned for sale, development, or refinancing. A corrected title not only enhances your property’s value but also provides peace of mind knowing that your investment is protected and fully documented.
