A title search is a search which gives answer to the question if the owner is really a legal owner of the property and if there are any outstanding claims on the property. This can be done by going through records of property at sub registrar’s office.

If a property has encumbrance on it like mortgage deed or other claim on property then it is known as title defect.

When a property is sold and ownership passes from one owner to other on more than one occasion then title of the property creates a chain of ownership which is called chain of title.

An encumbrance is a thing which creates difficulty in transfer of property from one owner to other for example outstanding mortgages, liens on real estate, unpaid property taxes etc.

Sub registrar’s offices are divided according to regions and specific jurisdiction is allotted to specific office to handle property registrations in that area.
