• Can I Modify The Wording Of Your Document! 'Statutory Decleration As To Equitable Tittle?

    By Guest on 28th Jan 2019

    The wording of you standard 'Statutory Declaration as to Equitable Title' doesn't quite fit my case. i.e. Pont 1 "When the property was purchased in the joint names of myself and it was declared that we held the same as tenants-in-common." Whereas in fact I purchased the property in 2001 in my sole name using a mortgage to which I was sole party, my wife has never made any financial contibution to the property whatsoever. I transfered it into our joint names in 2007 only after I had paid the mortgage off and a restiction was then applied to the title in 2012 preventing its sale unless we both agreed. What I want to do is to amend the first paragraph so that it reads something to the effect that I purchased the property in 2001 using a mortgage but that the mortgage was cleared in 2007 by me i.e. the property was in my sole name but that I then transfered it into the joint names of my wife and I as joint tenants but that a restiction was placed on the property in 2012 preventing its sale unless we both agreed. We want to now transfer the property back to my sole name for no financial value but that before doing this we want the restriction removed. All evidence as to changes to title and the restriction are obviously held by The Land Registry and there is nothing unusual about anything. Is the Statotory Deceleration as to Equitable Tittle, suitably amended together with a properly completed AP1 suitable for this purpose? If not, what else needs to be done & can you assist me if necessary?

    I am not the site owner so I am not familiar with their template to which you refer but in general a template is just a precedent to work from - it should be modifiable. I would always advise however that you use a conveyancer when drawing up any legal documents.
