welcome welcome welcome everybody hi i'm
claudia and i'm tony
thank you so much for opening the video
today we're real estate agents in
jamaica
and we sell real estate build real
estate
those of you want to buy you will also
call us there is a document that we must
interface with
when we're doing any handling anything
to do with real estate
and that is called a title so today
we're going to show you
how to get a copy of your title
a lot of you will say to me miss davis
the mortgage company
have my title yes they do what they have
is called a duplicate original of the
title
the title is office they're the ones
that have the
original title now
you need to have that title you need to
can't see
a copy of the title why don't you know
if you own the property to know if you
own the property right
first thing if your name is on the title
persons have asked us to sell property
when we pull the title their name
is not unattacked you know sometimes
that happens if you inherit
property as well um the lawyer didn't do
the other
the final step so you get the grant of
probate
but there's another step that needs to
be done so that your name
can go on the title so we have had that
one right
you also want to make sure that it is
spelled correctly
your name we've also had that so persons
who have been married and all of that
you want to ensure that when you're now
selling the property or doing anything
that you use if you have id's in the
original name that you bought the
property
in that's good if not you would need to
present your marriage certificate
because the name you would then you
would love to prove that it is still you
you just got married to somebody else
but it's still claudia davis and it's
still tonia
right right what else why is do they
need a copy on their title or should
have one
to look at the covenants when they're
doing additions the covenants
right the title is what tells you
how far from the back line you should be
or how far from the side boundaries
or how far from the center line of the
road in the front in front
the title tells you that if some of you
had read that covenant known about that
you would not have breached the property
some titles also tell you
how high the fence is to be or how high
the trees should be and the shrubs
those are breeches as well yes and also
sometimes we'll tell you
your gate is not open onto the roadway
those kinds of things
ladies and gentlemen so stay with us
we're going to show you
how you can purchase a copy of your
title
so the first thing you'll do is go to
the website that's national lan agency
it's www.nle.gov.gm
once you're on the website you'll scroll
down and look for eland
jamaica it's you during the section
that's on the highlights
and you click
it will open and you'll ask the
disclaimer you click accept
you read the disclaimer first yeah you
read this claim first
click accept if you don't think i check
you can't use the website right but you
should read the disclaimer ladies and
gentlemen
and then you go to the right at the top
where it says search
now if you want to buy a title you'll
click the link that says
title and then you put in the volume and
folder
but you may not know the volume
unfolding so you can go to the other
section that says
parcel so so okay so if you know the
volume of folio straight off you just
got the title
put in your volume our folio put in the
volume our folio
so it tells you please enter the
reference volume or folder to conduct a
search
define the location of a pass using the
map select parse a search
tab so if you don't know the volume of
folio as you can see
you can also use a valuation number
which is a number on your tax receipt
usually a 10 digit number you can use a
valid click into volume or folio put in
a volume of folio remember the volume
as it says there four digits so usually
four digits for the volume right right
and anywhere from one to three digits
for the folio
right is it one two three i've seen i've
seen some with one
and i've seen some with two and i've
seen three right
but remember you must put the backslash
between volume
and folio the older the title is the
less numbers it have
oh okay good you can also use a scheme
address
so if you live at six five seven maze
close fairview park spanish dog
which was my first house in spanish
though then you can also use that
six five seven maze close me isc
close no it would be six five seven
fairview park
six five seven of your food pack right
six five seven would have been the
lot number at the time well it still is
and you go search that's my house
all right so a couple things you can do
with this site you know
we're showing you how to buy the title
but we're gonna just gonna show you a
quick thing
so it has brought up six five seven
fairview pack if you notice it brings up
a box
so if you didn't know your land
evaluation number
you didn't know the number to pay the
property tax
and we're going to do another video on
it so it depends on when you're watching
this video you can probably click in the
link and it will be there
the top number is a land valuation
number so you can now
copy that and go to the property tax
portal put in that number
and find the property tax i'm going to
show that in another video video
title reference is there so if i didn't
know the title reference before remember
i use the address to find it right
what's the title reference one two two
three
three that's the volume and the folio on
this
is just eight right so it's one one
number for the folio
it tells you the size so i know that is
three three eight
square meters or it could be three three
eight
six just rounding up to ten to ten times
ten
three thousand three hundred and eighty
six
square feet that's a rough way of
knowing how much square feet it is guys
tells me it's may is closed as the name
of the road now maze
m-a-i-s and the scheme it's lock 6-5-7
location is spanish down same character
it's different though
they spelled maze m-e-i is here but they
spell it
m-e-i-s-e here oh on the actual road
itself
right but on the here
so when you're searching for it you'll
have to use this one
n-e-i-n yes to find it
all right another cool thing i should
show you about this
and i'm really only trying to show you
how to buy a copy of the title
but since i'm here i may as well show
you if you go here
so if you notice now i'm actually in
what we call street view
right where it shows me the street so
you can use this arrow and click off
there
then you can use this and minimize your
screen
so that you can see more of the roads
that are in this development and as you
go down you will see more
but just look at this okay look remember
you keep saying that you're live right
at the lane mode
it's right there yeah see the lane mode
there guys uh
right here so when i flooded the water
came down here because they did not
fix the dreams so i had to pick up a big
wall right here it's a big wall
all right so isn't that cool
yes but look now you can see
all of the hoses that are
in the scheme and you see the name of
the roads are minimized
so back here is what was called winter's
pen on the map they called it winter's
park
so i had no idea what it was
until i bought the property actually
went there
right so if you notice it's kind of like
an informal
road because even though it shows up
on streets when you can't see because
of
is it a real streak well it must be a
regular eyes by now
it's not really showing up on the map
though on the map system
it shows that it shows on the street but
it's not showing up it's not paved
apparently
yeah because yellow line is it yeah
which is why i flooded
so ladies and gentlemen all right tony
and show them quickly how to that's what
they're waiting on
how to buy this how to buy the title
right okay
well you can play a role in this guys
so what was the amount
you want to come back so you go to the
bottom you see an arrow and we can get
back in
one two two three eight
one two two three eight
now one two three backslash eight
and it's gonna take us back there
there you go so it asks you would you
like
to purchase tony have to read
can't see would you like to purchase
title
and or related documents all right so
not only can you purchase a title
you can purchase other documents a tony
selected title but you can also
purchase a valuation rule report
what's the cost for the title 500 that's
500
jamaican dollars ladies and gentlemen is
so cheap
living in jamaica is not expensive more
than reasonable
right so you add it so you add it to
your cart so it says one item added to
cart
you want to do another no no
so you go proceed to check out
that's it we're not we're not buying the
title so
but if we were going to buy the title
it's a panel
username and password you would have had
to sign up for username and password
correct
right um if you didn't they said
register don't have an account you click
register and register down
right then you take your visa and
mastercard anything i'll take care
so if you're in jamaica or if you live
overseas
you can purchase a copy of your title
so that you can be informed about the
property that you own
or property that your parents own or
you're going to or you're going to own
