Q: If I’m ordering an historic search of a title, why does it not include all historic information concerning the land dating back from the beginning of the land transfer records?
A copy of a historic title will provide all current and historic information regarding that title from the date that title issued. If that title comes from subdivided land (and most titles have been subdivided from a larger block of land at some point) and you want historic information dating back further, a search will need to be conducted on the title/titles prior to it, and the title before that and so on. This type of historic searching backwards to a specific date ie; 1890 or a specific action ie; when a relative sold the land, can take considerable time and will attract the charges of all the titles involved in the search and time and attendance charges. You will need to enquire at [email protected] for more information on this type of search.
