AU Australia property term

Torrens Title

Western Australia

Plain-English definition

The land-title registration system under which the State register records ownership and registered interests in land.

Why this matters to a foreign buyer

Use a current title search rather than an old copy because later mortgages, caveats, easements or other interests may have been registered or lodged.
