The Torrens System (Classic Reprint): Its Simplicity, Serviceability and Success: Its Simplicity, Serviceability and Success (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Torrens System offers a simpler, safer way to transfer land. This edition presents the principles, debates, and real‑world impact of land title reform. It argues that registration can replace confusing conveyancing with a clearer, more reliable record of ownership.

Across history and in many countries, the system aims to reduce costs, eliminate obscurity, and quiet uncertain titles. It is framed as a practical approach backed by legal decisions and public policy, with attention to how the register and its certificates function in modern real estate transactions.

• Clear advantages in conveyancing, title certainty, and reduced litigation


• Constitutional and legal questions addressed, with outcomes in multiple jurisdictions


• Cost comparisons between traditional title examination and a Torrens‑based system


• Practical implications for buyers, lenders, and lawyers involved in land transfers

Ideal for readers of law, real estate, and history of property registration who want a concise view of how land title systems can work in practice.
