In a transaction where the first plot forms part of a newly built residential estate and the estate has a single registered title, which form of purchase deed is used?

• A. TP1
• B. SF
• C. DE
• D. GD

Answer: (A)

When a plot is carved out from a single, larger registered title, you use a transfer that records the transfer of part of a registered title. In this scenario—the first plot forming part of a newly built residential estate that is under one registered title—the correct purchase deed is the form that specifically handles transferring only part of that title to the buyer. This form creates a new title for the plotted portion while the rest remains on the original title.

Other forms are used for different conveyancing situations and don’t cover transferring part of a registered title, so they aren’t appropriate here.
