Will charges apply if no results return?
Yes, no result is considered a result and is therefore chargeable. We don’t refund manual document ordering searches, as we fulfill these searches.
What search criteria should I use?
You can search by one of the following:
- title reference
- address
- owner
- property
- survey plan (ensure you include a prefix in your search)
- tenure type.
Search by survey plan
Enter your reference, lot number and survey plan. For the survey plan, ensure you include a prefix.
Most survey plans have the prefix S, L or LTO (depending on the type) followed by two or four numbers for the year and three digits for the plan number (for example, S85/123 or LTO2020/123).
What information will I receive from a search certificate?
A search certificate (commonly referred to as a certificate of title) produces a time-stamped record from the NT land titles office showing information for the subject property. Details that may appear on a certificate include:
- date registered
- volume and folio details
- duplicate certificate issued information
- property description
- area
- owner details
- dealings (including registered date, dealing number and description)
- title diagram.
If the title that you’ve requested is cancelled, we’ll provide you with the most current title instead. However, if only a cancelled title is available, you’ll receive that.
