I have misplaced my title deed, the Deeds Office does not have a duplicate copy: What do I do now?

What happens when you are in the process of selling your property or applying for mortgage finance and cannot find your original registered title deed? You contact a firm of conveyancing attorneys for advice and guidance as to what can be done, and they advise you that an application for a replacement of the title deed in terms of Regulation 68(1) of the Deeds Registries Act 47 of 1937 (Act) will need to be submitted (see previous alert on Title Deeds are meant to be kept safe, not for inspiring young pilots ). However if the deeds registries’ copy is not available then an application for a certificate of registered title taking the place of a lost, destroyed, incomplete or unserviceable deed in terms of section 38 of the Act will need to be made.

A party alleging that a valid agreement has been concluded must prove that the acceptance of the offer is unambiguous and corresponds with the terms of the offer. This is not always an easy task.
