Article 4 Valuation (registered land)

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Where the value of the land in a registered title falls to be determined under this Order it shall be ascertained by the Registrar at such sum as in his opinion the land would fetch if sold in the open market free from any charge or mortgage:

(a)

in the case of a surrender at a date immediately prior to the surrender;

(b)

in any other case at the date of the application.

(2)

As evidence of such value the Registrar may require a statement in writing, signed by the applicant or his solicitor or licensed conveyancer or by any other person who, in the Registrar’s opinion, is competent to make such a statement.
