XAND TRANSFER ACT LANDS ALIENATED or contracted to be alienated from tbe Crown in fee prior to the coming into operation of " The Land Transfer Act, 187Q," may be brought under the provisions of the Act by application from the persons entitled thereto. All Lands alienated from tbe Crown after the coming into operation of " The Land Transfer Aefc. 1870," are subject to, and must be dealt with, in manner prescribed by the Act. The following are examples |, f the fee payable for bringing the land under the pre risions of the Land Transfer Act : — 1. When the Title consists of a Grant, dated on or subsequent to the 28th December, 1841, none of the land included in which has been dealt witty— Where the Certificate of title is directed to issue in tne name of the A iplicant: Value of land £100 fti 11 2 Where the Certificate of title is directed to issue in the name of the Purchaser'! ' Valine of land £100 1 10 0 Theso charges are increased by 4s 2d (Assurance Fund) for eyery additional £100 in value. 2. When tbe Applicant is tbe original Grantee, and the land has . been dealt with ; or where the Applicant is not tho original Grantee — Where tha value of the land is £100 £2 14 2 Where the value of the land £200 ' ... 8 3 4 Where the value of the land is £300 ... ... -. ••• 312 6 Whare the value of fhe land is £400 ... 4 1 8 Where the value of land is above £400, the fees increase at the rate of 4s 2d (Assurance Fund) for e7ery Additional £100 in value. These charges also represent the cost of Conveying Land. inasmuch as applicants to bring land under the Act can direct the Certificates of Title to issue in the names of any other persons. Credit for Fees is Given, When desired by the Ap], lieant in all caseß where the proprietor applies to have the land registered under .the Act in big own name, and the fses may remain unpaid until- • la 3d is dealt with. Any person, therefore, who wishes to % hia land iitidor the provisions 6f the Act, order that whenever he deals with it he be in a position to avaiL. himself of facilities afforded by having a Registered Title, can do so Without Any Present Cost, by allowing the fees to remain unpaid until such dealing takes place. If 9 will then be in a position to Mortgage, Transfer, Lease, or otherwise deal with his land at a moment's notice. •- >- ' ■'' ' Any Title, however long and complex, may be investigated at a cost to the Applicant of only Five Shillings ; for if tbe Title is reeded all fees are returned, with the exceptior of that amount. CERTIFICATES OF TITLE ARE ABSOLUTELY INDEFEASIBLE. ALL TITLES ARE GUARANTEED B_ THE GOVERNMENT. On all Conveyance^ by" Deed finder the old system, the cost of registration in the Deeds Registry, pver and abovs the Solicitor's charge, is never less than Fifteeh Shillings, frequently very much mors ; while land which has been bought under the provisions of "The Land Transfer Act ".can be transferred at a total cost of Eleven Shillings where a whole section is conveyed ; and/ w t berß only part is conveyed (and therefore a fresh .Certificate of Title is necessitated), of Thirity-one^Shillings, which is the highest sum allowed by,, tbe Act, no matter wbat the yalue or area of the land. Under the Regulations in force on and after the Ist January, 187k/, the cbarge-for Certificates of Titles issued upon Memoranda of Transfer is reduced to Ten Shillings in all cases where tbe value Of the land is under Ten Pounds. The total cost of executing a mortgage or lease of land, registered under the Ace, is Twelve Shillings, np matter what the amount involved. ' ' / A mortgage may be transferred or discharged, or a lease transferred Or surrendered lor Five Shillings. > THESE OPERATIONS INVOLVE NO DELAY.' ' ! The following are some of tbe ad *&»tigei inferred by the Land Transfer system :— 1. It secures the principal benefits and ad' vantages sought to* be attained in t system of registration of deeds. 2. It renders retrospective investigation 0 title unnecessary as to all land re gistered. 8, It simplifies the Titles to Real Property for the future, h 4. It makes purchasers of the fee am leases perfectly secure. ' 5. It simplifies, to the. utmost possible 1 extent, the forms of transfer and tin 3 modes of conveyance. 6. It increases the saleable value of land, i 7. It -tends to lower the rate ol interest 01 l loans secured on lands, f 8. It gives facilities for the sale of larg estates in allotments. 9. Transactions Can be effected at „ moment's notice, and at a miniraui r of cost. . ' ■ 10. Frauds in the purchase and sale of lan aro effectually prevented, beoause th ' Certificate of Title in the possession < the Vendor shows the exact conditio of the estate, i.e., if the estate be mor > gaged, encumbered, or leased. Menu t rauda disclosing the particulars ol an S such transactions ailwcting the estal r are written tipon^tbe. Certificate
