Property regularisation
Property regularisation is a process used to change the boundaries and extent of properties by transferring land or buildings from one property to another. The purpose of property regularisation is usually to create a better fit between properties and land uses, for example to facilitate construction projects or to improve infrastructure.
A property can be divided or merged with another property through property regularisation. This may involve transferring part of one property to another or merging two or more properties into one. It can also involve the transfer of buildings or other structures and facilities from one property to another.
The process of property regularisation involves different steps and requires a decision by the land registry. The first step is usually the signing of a property settlement agreement and then the application for property registration.
After the application has been submitted, the land registry evaluates it and assesses whether the property readjustment is reasonable and compatible with current rules and regulations. Naturally, affected property owners and lenders also have a say in the process. If the application is approved, the regularisation can be carried out by amending formal maps, the land register, etc.
Property regularisation can be complex, but in some cases it can also be a cost-effective way of transferring or acquiring property, i.e. in a real estate transaction, with or without a related share deal. The reason is that the transfer is not yet subject to stamp duty for title deeds.
