I just received a copy of a survey of a neighboring property with a Notice of First Application to Land Titles. What does this mean?Before land can be developed, the owner needs to confirm that he has solid title to the property right up to the boundaries that he intends to build to. This is accomplished through a formal process known as an Application for Absolute Title in the Land Titles land registration system. The property is surveyed, and all forms of occupation (e.g., fences, shrubs, even the edge of grass cutting). If you are abutting the subject property, you should carefully examine the survey to see if the boundary between your property and the property being developed is shown correctly. |
