A buyer's conveyancer is examining an unregistered root of title dated 12 May 1998. The deed is a conveyance for value executed by the beneficial owner. Does this deed satisfy the requirements of a good root of title under section 44 of the Law of Property Act 1925 (as amended by the Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1989)?

Yes, because it is a conveyance for money's worth executed more than 15 years ago that deals with the whole legal and equitable estate. No, because a good root of title in unregistered land must be at least 30 years old. No, because only a assent by personal representatives can form a good root of title. Yes, but only if accompanied by a statutory declaration confirming 20 years of adverse possession.

Correct Answer:

Yes, because it is a conveyance for money's worth executed more than 15 years ago that deals with the whole legal and equitable estate.
