Land Titles and Transfer Act

Read a random definition: placitory

A quick definition of Land Titles and Transfer Act:

Land Titles and Transfer Act: A law made in 1875 that created a place where people could register their ownership of land and record any transfers of that land. It was like a big book where people could write down who owned what land. This law was replaced by a new system in 1925.

A more thorough explanation:

The Land Titles and Transfer Act is a law that was passed in 1875. Its purpose was to create a registry for titles to real property and to provide a way for people to transfer ownership of land and record those transfers. This law was replaced by a system of title registration in 1925.

One example of how this law worked is that if someone wanted to sell their land to another person, they would need to transfer the title of the property to the new owner. This transfer would need to be recorded in the registry so that it was official and legally recognized.

Another example is that if someone inherited land from a family member, they would need to transfer the title of the property to their name. This transfer would also need to be recorded in the registry.

The Land Titles and Transfer Act was similar to laws in the United States that require deeds to be recorded in a registry. This helped to ensure that ownership of land was clear and that there were no disputes over who owned a particular piece of property.
