Synopsis

Clarify title rights and trust duties with expert guidance for property buyers and professionals.

This handbook provides practical insight into how titles, trusts, and the duties of trustees affect ownership and conveyance. It covers the distinction between two kinds of trustees, when a purchaser can rely on a trustee’s power, and how notice and payment influence marketable title. With a focus on real‑world scenarios, it offers rules and observations useful to solicitors, students, and readers seeking a clear path through complex property law.

  • Understand how the legal and equitable estates interact in trusts and how this affects transfers.
  • Learn when a purchaser is protected by being a purchaser for valuable consideration without notice.
  • See how notice, documentary evidence, and trust declarations influence title to land.
  • Grasp practical cautions about buying from trustees and the importance of authority to confer title.
Ideal for readers of property law, trusts, and conveyancing, and for anyone needing a concrete, historical view of title practice in English law.
