Associated documents

Deed bundles often contain items other than title deeds. These associated documents were collected by lawyers during the process of proving title, or were kept with the title deeds because they related to the property in some way.

In this section, some of the main types of associated documents are explained in detail:  

• Will

• Affidavit and Statutory declaration
