Boundary & Neighbour Disputes - 5 Steps to Resolution

Introduction

This webinar will run through the key points that practitioners should take when faced with boundary disputes.

As we know, the wanton loss and destruction of pre-registration deeds (for no reason) that happened in the mid 2000s has left many owners with no easy way of resolving boundary disputes.

Contrary to popular belief, the red Land Registry plan rarely ever shows the legal boundaries, as this was never the intention.

Title insurance policies are scattered around like confetti, but they change nothing, and the issue needs to be resolved, but where do you start?

What You Will Learn

This webinar will cover the following:

• Step one - Find any deeds if at all possible and how to interpret them. The Boundaries Protocol
