AAG Settlements can prepare and submit an ‘Application for Lost Title’ with Landgate (WA’s land titles office). This process is typically quite straight forward.
The applicant has to be the registered owner on the Certificate of Title (Title) . Along with this application, Landgate requires a Statutory Declaration which must abide by the current regulations.
The circumstances cited as to how you lost your Title must be valid. All reasonable searches must be made prior to completing and submitting the Application for Lost Title and the accompanying Statutory Declaration. In addition, Landgate requires full disclosure of who resides at the property, who was last in possession of the Title, where it is usually kept and who had access to the it.
AAG Settlements can assist you with your application and we have the necessary qualified people in our office to witness your signature/s on the required documents.
