APPLICATION TO SURRENDER TITLE

R.T.A. Section 77

Please note the following:

Please ensure that covenants prohibiting this type of application have been modified and/or discharged.

The plan must conform to the subdivision approval, that is, it should contain the same number of lots sanctioned by the subdivision approval. The subdivision approval submitted must be the original bearing the signature and the Seal of the local authority or be a certified copy thereof.

Ensure that where the conditions of approval indicate that any lots are to be splayed (or that an area for road improvement be reserved) that this ha been done on the plan. Where the plan contains slight deviations from the subdivision approval, it is advisable that a letter from the local authority sanctioning the deviation be obtained.

Please note that where the Resolution contains restrictions on the issuing of Splinter Titles, a Registrar’s caveat will be lodged against the Title to protect the interest of the local authority until a Certificated as directed by the Resolution is submitted to the Registrar releasing the lots. Further if the Resolution calls for Certification by the local authority (Parish Council, KSAC) the Certificate must be signed by the secretary of the Parish Council or the Town Clerk in the case of the KSAC. A Certificate signed by the Superintendent of Roads and Works is only acceptable where the resolution expressly calls for it.

Where mortgages are on the Title, the application must be expressed to be subject to same unless discharge of mortgages are being submitted.A Consent of Mortgagee is to be submitted.

Easement/Right of Way – These are grants of interest in land and so are required to be the subject of a grant or transfer and cannot be properly imposed by inclusion in a surrender application.

Where a document is executed before a Notary Public in a Foreign State or Country then a Certificate from the relevant body appointing notaries public should be produced verifying the commission of the notary public.

Where a company is registered proprietor of land then a Certificate under the hand and seal of the Registrar of Companies should be produced stating that the company is still on the register and that no proceedings have been started to have it removed from the register.

The regulations to the Registration (Strata Titles Act) require that Strata Plan should not be creased, (folded) and be free from discoloration and blemishes. They may be rejected for this.

• The stamp of the local authority must appear on each strata sheet

• Sheets must be 151/2 in Length by 10” in width, Margin 11/2” on left side and ½” on right side, top and bottom.

• Surveyors Certificate should be completed and signed

• Unit entitlement must be in whole numbers

• Address for service must be stated on the strata plan

• Strata Corporation – comes into operation once the plan is registered in the Office of Titles
