Review of real estate titles

How can a notary provide you with a guaranteed unquestionable real estate title?

 

By completing all appropriate searches, the notary can ascertain that your property title is unquestionable. Firstly, the search consists of establishing:

1
That the seller is the real owner of the property
2
That the seller has the right and the ability to proceed with the sale
3
That the seller’s spouse or any other person must consent to the sale
4
If a mortgage or other charges are to be removed from the title

Using the location certificate, the notary then checks:

1
If the land dimensions are right
2
That the buildings are actually on the land that is sold
3
That the house was built following municipal and zoning bylaws
4
If the neighbor’s property encroaches on your land
5
That the windows respect legal norms
6
If there is any right-of-way
