Deed of ownership

A deed of ownership is the legal instrument that establishes and proves who holds title to a real estate asset. It is registered and maintained in the public land registry, creating a binding public record of ownership rights.

In commercial property transactions, the deed serves as the foundation for all rights and obligations attached to the asset. It documents the owner's identity, encumbrances such as mortgages or liens, and any easements or restrictions affecting use. Transactions, financing, and legal disputes all depend on a current, clear deed of ownership.
