Lease to Own on Development Registration
Lease to Own on Development Registration records an eligible lease-to-own arrangement for a property linked to a real estate development before final title registration. The contract is entered in the provisional register in favour of the financing entity and the lessee, together with the applicable financing and unit details. RAALC Real Estate Registration Agent supports developers, purchasers, financing entities, companies, and authorized representatives with reviewing the project record, aligning the contract with the unit registration, and preparing the transaction for submission.
Service Overview
This service applies where the relevant property is still recorded within a real estate development and the lease-to-own relationship must be reflected in the provisional register. The developer registers the contract in favour of both the financing entity and the lessee, allowing the financing arrangement to be linked to the specific unit before the property reaches final registration.
Unlike a standard lease-to-own registration involving a finally registered property, this transaction depends on the project and unit data already recorded in the development system. The financing entity, financing amount, purchaser or lessee details, and contract information must therefore correspond with the provisional sale record.
RAALC Real Estate Registration Agent reviews the development and unit information, verifies the parties and financing details, and checks the supporting corporate or representation documents before the transaction is processed. Particular attention is given to the consistency between the lease-to-own contract and the existing provisional registration.
Once approved, the provisional property record is updated to reflect the lease-to-own arrangement. The registration establishes the relevant interests at the development stage but does not issue a final title deed or complete the eventual ownership transfer.
