What's at stake
What is really at stake
- 01Buying property before individual title issues means there is nothing to transfer on a register.The interest passes by assignment under the master title.
- 02If the assignment chain is broken, if the developer's consent was never obtained, or if the earlier assignment was never stamped, the buyer's position can be far weaker than they believe.
In plain words
Deed of Assignment and Master Title Documentation
Deed of assignment documentation for property held under master title — the assignment itself, developer or proprietor consent, the chain of prior assignments, stamping, and the position on eventual issuance of individual title.
