Verification of Identity

As part of the settlement process all buyers must have their identity verified and we may need to collect information required under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006.

Please confirm the type of tenancy.(Required)

Joint Tenants

Tenants in Common in equal Shares

Tenants in Common in unequal shares

In a joint tenancy ownership, the main feature is that upon the death of any one tenant, that tenant’s share will pass to the remaining tenant(s) (“the right of survivorship”). In a joint tenancy arrangement, each tenant is equal in ownership in all respects in relation to the other joint tenants. A Tenants in Common arrangement is created when 2 or more persons have distinct interests either in equal or unequal shares. Tenants in common do not have a right of survivorship. Each tenant may dispose of their share as if they were the sole owner. Upon the death of a tenant in common, their share would pass as per their Will.

If Tenants in Common in unequal shares, please specify share allocation below:(Required)

(NOTE: If unequal shares have not been specified on your Contract, requesting unequal share allocation may incur additional stamp duty.)

Unsure – please have a Stewart Title Representative contact me to discuss

Title insurance is a type of property insurance for buyers and homeowners. It protects your ownership and use of the property by guarding against certain risks that may cause loss or affect the ownership, for a one-off premium. For example, complete loss of legal ownership due to a fraudulent sale of your property, loss caused due to forced removal by council of a structure illegally built by a previous owner, loss of land due to survey errors or zoning non – compliance. If you do not wish to take this insurance or should you wish to discuss Title Insurance further, please contact one of Stewart Title’s consultants who will be able to assist you with any of your questions regarding title insurance.
