Limited Title Removal
How to remove a Limited Title with a Plan of Delimitation.
What is a Limited Title?
Limited Title means the boundaries have never been properly determined. It’s the equivalent of building your house on jelly as the foundation.
A Plan of Delimitation locks in your boundaries so that you don’t have disputes with your neighbours.
A helpful analogy is travel insurance: If you can’t afford the insurance, you can’t afford the trip.
If you’re buying or building on Limited Title land, make sure you avoid costly consequences later by removing the limitation before you start.
The time you find out about Limited Title is often at the most inconvenient time, in the middle of a transaction or construction.
Limited Title can cause headaches with obtaining finance. You can also have issues with encroachments. which leads to costly disputes with neighbours.
If you buy a piece of land, you should have full confidence in exactly what you own!
