Title

A legal document showing the ownership of a property. Title documents are registered with the land registry offices in each respective Province. Lenders providing a first mortgage require ‘clean’ title to a property before providing the mortgage. This means they have full, unrestricted and authentic ownership of the property. Mortgages are legally registered on title to protect the lender's financial interest in the property.
