Client guide — Land & Property
All client guidesHow do I transfer land into my name?
Transfer involves title verification, preparing the transfer documents, payment of the applicable duties and registration. We handle the process end to end.
How do I verify that a land title is genuine?
Verification requires searches at the land registry and review of the supporting documents. We conduct due diligence to confirm the title and identify any encumbrances before you commit.
What can I do if someone encroaches on my land?
Act promptly. We protect your rights through negotiation, formal notices and, where necessary, court proceedings.
How do I lodge a caveat?
A caveat is lodged with the land registry to protect an interest in land. We prepare and file caveats and advise on their effect.
