My lawyer says 18 years of Extract Copy (EC) is enough to confirm if the land is legally granted. Is that correct? Should I still ask for copies from the past 18 years? Also, the property we’re buying is missing from the Mutation Register. What issues could arise if we buy the property without the necessary entry in the Mutation Register?

While 18 years of ECs can provide some insight, it’s not a definitive proof of legal grant. You should request copies for the entire period of ownership to ensure clarity. The missing entry in the Mutation Register indicates a potential ownership dispute and could lead to legal challenges in the future.

My wife’s grandfather left property that was divided in 1994. Her mother and brother registered it in their names, leaving her out. Her brother passed away in 2011 and her mother in 2016. Her mother allowed her to build a house on the ground floor with the understanding her brother would build the second floor. My wife built the first floor in 1994 but her brother never built the second. Her mother wrote this in a registered will.
