Pay online and collect the original signed letter at our St Ann's Bay office. The attorney reviews your information before preparing the letter for collection.
Request letter of possessionTell us where the land is, how you came into possession and which authority requested the letter. Provide any written request from the authority and any supporting property documents you have.
These may include a survey diagram, property tax records, a sale agreement, a deed or estate documents. The attorney will identify any further information needed for your circumstances.
A letter may form part of the supporting documents for an application. It does not create ownership, replace a registered title or give permission to build. The relevant authority decides what evidence it needs and whether to approve the application.
Where someone else owns the land, the authority may require their authorisation. We assess suitability before preparing a letter.
