The legal effect of the L.R. information

The main distinction to be drawn is between a deed registration and a title registration.

An important aspect of the presentation of the legal effects, is the reliability of the information: if the Land Registry informs me that person A is the owner of a plot of land, can I be sure that this person is indeed the owner ?

No security on property. The information gives you guarantee on the existence of deeds in a chronological way.
