From 1 October 2019 paper Certificates of Title (sometimes called “The Deed”) issued in Queensland will no longer have any legal effect, as the electronic title held by the Titles Office will be the true record of ownership. From this date, you may either keep your Paper Certificate of Title for historical purposes or destroy it.
Please note that if you sell your property before 1 October 2019, you will still need to present your original paper Certificate of Title at settlement.
Contact us if you have further questions are are seeking a law firm for the conveyancing for your property sale.
