LANDS alienated or contracted to be alienated from the Crown in fee, prior to the coming into operation of “The Land Transfer Act, 1870,” may be brought under the provisions of the Act by application from the persons entitled thereto. All lands alcniated from the Crown after the coming into operation of “ The Land Transfer Act, 1870,” arc subject to, and must be dealt with, in manner prescribed by the Act. The following are examples of the fee, payable for bringing the land under the provisions of the Land Transfer Act:— 1. When the title consists of a grant, dated on or subsequent to the 28 th December, 1841, none of the land included in which has been dealt with— Where the certificate of title is diaected to issue in the name of the applicant: value of land, £IOO ... 11 2 Where the certificate of title is directed to issue in the name of the purchaser; value of land, £IOO ... 1 10 0 These charges arc increased by 4s. 2d. (Assurance Fund) for every additional £IOO in value. 2. When the applicant is the original grantee, and the land has been dealt with ; or where the applicant is not the original grantee—the fees increase at the rate of 4s. 2d. (Assurance Fee) for every additional £IOO 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 applicant, in all cases where the proprietor applies to have the land registered under the Act in his own name, and the foes may remain unpaid until the land is dealt with. Any person, therefore, who wishes to bring bis land under the provisions of the Act, in order that whenever he deals with it he may bo in a position to avail himself of the facilities afforded by having a registered title, can do so without any present cost, by allowing the fees to remain unpaid until such cleoling takes place. He 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 the title is rejected, all fees arc returned, with the exception of that amount. ALE EITLES ARE GUARANTEED BY THE GOVERNMENT. On all conveyances by deed under the old system, the cost ol registration in the Deeds Registry, over and above the solicitor’s charge, is never less than fifteen shillings, frequently very much more; while land which has been brought 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 where only part is conveyed (and. therefore a fresh certificate of title is necessitated), of thirty-one which is the
