Torrens System

The Torrens System is a method of land registration that simplifies property ownership records. Originating in Australia, it ensures that a government authority maintains an official register of land titles. When you buy property under this system, your ownership is guaranteed by the government, which makes it easier to transfer or sell land. It reduces disputes over property boundaries and claims because the register is authoritative. This system promotes confidence in real estate transactions, helping buyers and sellers clearly understand ownership rights and responsibilities.
