A Certificate of Title (CT) is a formal document that records transactions concerning the specific parcel of land identified by the CT. It records the legal description of the land, all owners, current and historic, any legal documents (mortgages, leases, rights, easements, restrictions, etc.) registered against the land. CT's also contain a diagram that shows the shape and dimensions of the land. The CT you provide with your application should not be older than 90 days.
Titles are held electronically under Land information New Zealand’s Landonline system. Alternatively MBCL can assist with sourcing your CT for $25.00 +GST – ask us at your lodgement meeting.
