A fictional Title Search (folio) laid out like NSW LRS's. Names and numbers are invented.
  1. 1Title referenceIn NSW the lot and plan is the title reference, called the folio identifier: Lot 12 in Deposited Plan 1234567.
  2. 2EditionThis is edition 2, made on 6 May 2019. A new edition is made each time a dealing (a registered document) changes the title.
  3. 3PlanThe boundaries are on the deposited plan, which is a separate document. Order it if you need measurements or where the easement runs.
  4. 4How they own itJane and John own the whole property together. If one dies, the other becomes the sole owner, whatever a will says.
  5. 5TransferT means transfer: dealing AP731255 is the document that made them the owners.
  6. 6EasementA 1-metre strip of this lot can be used to drain water from other land. You usually can't build over it; the plan shows where it is.
  7. 7RestrictionA covenant created with the subdivision limits how the land can be used. The wording is in restriction 2 of the 88B instrument, not on the title.
  8. 8MortgageA home loan secured on the property. It stays on the title until the bank's discharge is registered.
  9. 9PendingDM is a discharge of mortgage. It has been lodged but not yet registered; once it is, the mortgage drops off and a new edition is made.

What's on a title

  • Who is registered as the owner, and whether they hold it as joint tenants or tenants in common
  • The lot and plan the title covers
  • Any registered mortgage, caveat, easement, covenant or lease
  • Dealings lodged but not yet registered

Our guide to reading a NSW title walks through each part.
