Register Search Statement improvements

Land Victoria has launched two new Register Search Statement enhancements as part of our ongoing efforts to improve convenience and function for our customers.

Existing services already included:

• advice on whether a folio was affected by a body corporate, provided at the foot of the page.
• information for Electronic Conveyancing projects on whether an administrative notice had been lodged that affected the folio.

On 27 July, 2007 two extra enhancements were launched to further improve the Register Search Statement service.

Interest Titles

Other folios with an interest in the land will be listed where relevant.

This will alert customers to specific folio numbers (for up to six interests) and will also include reference to life estates if applicable.

A general warning only will be provided if the number of other interests exceeds six.

---

Street Address

The street address of the property will be provided when available.

If there are multiple, or no address details, no information will be provided.

These new improvements aim to help customers without expert knowledge better interpret the results of their title search.

Enhancements to Crown Land Status Report

The Crown Land Status Report will also be enhanced by including reference to Native Title determinations, if applicable.

The report will indicate whether or not Native Title was found to exist and if whole or part of the parcel is affected. Where relevant, a link to the National Native Title Tribunal website is included for further information.

Information is provided on Court determinations but not on claims.
