Land Law Assessment
Part A
For part A, question 1 has been selected. To provide the legal advice to Alison, IRAC
method will be used.
Issues
The key issues identified in the case scenario provided are mentioned as follows.
Whether Alison owes any rights to other parties related to the registered land that she
purchased?
Whether such rights can be protected?
Whether new purchaser of the property might be legally bound by such rights?
Rules and Application
As it is known that the registered land refers to the land transferred to the land register
and the register of rights. Secondly, someone has property rights. Land ownership is the
ownership of land for a limited time. This is the case in the UK legal law. On the other hand,
other immovable property rights are also referred in land law. The issues that are identified in the
above section can be analysed through provisions found in section 29 of the LRA 2002.1 Under
current rules, the restrictions that apply to high-priced property ownership of registered property
include the restriction or interests of protected rights in the register, registration fee or complete
interest by registration.2 It could be stated that Alison being the seller of the property made the

purchase of the registered through registration. It therefore binds the rights of third parties. The
rights of all the concerned parties including Barbara and Enid are discussed below.
As Barbara paid a certain amount of price, therefore, it was her right to get the share in
the property, but as per the facts of the case, there has been no information available on her
name’s listing in the registration of the property. Given the facts presented, it is not clear whether
the donation is a loan or a donation or participation in a partner. If the money purchased is paid
for by two or more parties on an equity basis and the assets are on behalf of one party, the capital
gains positive trust from the other party. The trust is activated when the cancellation of the fund's
financial interests is incomplete.3 On the other hand, if the purchase money is given in the form
of loans or grants, there can be no speculation about trust. So if the credit or gift has not been
paid in this case, it can be said that Alison may be involved. It must also be denied that trust
derives from the proof of the relationship between the parties.4
The problem is that Alison stayed home with her sister Edin until she decided to sell the
house. It can be argued that the interests of persons living in real estate may be binding on the
buyer (under certain conditions), even if those interests are not registered. There is no specific
definition for the actual position. The truth is that, according to case law, there must be some real
rights, not laws. This ensures consistency and consistency. Therefore, based on the above points
and the conditions below, it could be stated that can say that Barbara is engaged in real life. 5
Notification and mandatory restrictions apply when recording the price of land registered.
It has been clearly stated under LRA 2002 that a person's interest in the actual occupation of land
includes rights and actual occupation.6 So if it prevents Barbara’s interests, it would eventually

reduce Alison’s interests in the property. It should be noted that if the buyer asks with interest
about the land benefits before buying the land, he will not find it useful. If it is probable that it
will express benefits. The benefits offered by the owner are not violated. Alison did not mention
this when asked if she could inspect the home before buying.
Enid's rights: She has a room, she lives at least two months a year, and the room has been
renovated. He was also given the first right to deny. It is known that action has a broad
definition. Pre-emption refers to the behavior of others related to the pre-emption right. More
specifically, the first right of refusal is the right to purchase a specific property from another
person. The right to buy property belonging to another person is usually called the right of
refusal in the first place. Enid also granted the prescribed rights. This is a real estate contract.
Rights under section 33 of the LRA 2002 may be protected by prior notice or restriction
of recording.7 Potential buyers will not be restricted without notice. As per the case law stated in
Midland Bank Trust Co Ltd v Green,8 the court would not check whether Enid's benefits were
recognized. If her right is not registered, then it could be stated that it would be deemed that she
is not legally bound to have any interests in Alison’s property. Another way to enter user benefits
based on registration administrations is to use restrictions. Enid's restrictions are unclear at this
point.
For this reason, it can be said that Enid is not connected without restrictions. The
question is whether the short deadline (two months) and the antenna of the Ante clothes and
things can interfere with the real effort. The law does not state that a person should not have a
physical presence, but should not live or work there. Certainly, an appellant should not be treated
personally on appeal. One can think of Enid as a real short-term career. It is not clear if Alison

(No. 1) [1981] A.C. 513

would control the house, therefore, if Enid can prove her core interests, she can minimize
Alison's interests.
Besides, it can be stated that Dev’s right in the property could be determined by
considering the point that he was allowed to use the shed at the rear of Sleepy Hollow during the
winter. Therefore, it creates the right to use something in someone else's land. 9 Further, there is
right of way,10 and right to storage11 can be facilitated in many ways. In this case, it is a
transparent subsidy. The contract expired for five years. This is the legal convenience of the
agreement. Pursuant to section (1)(a) of Law of Property Act 1925 (LPA),12 the option is revoked
and the purchaser of the property is prohibited if the exemption is lawful. Similarly, under
section 3 of LRA 2002,13 the legal simplifications apply to purchasers only in the following cases
and require costly consideration.
1. The purchased property has been registered as per Commons Registration Act 1965; or
2. The buyer has the awareness regarding the property’ purchase; or
3. For inspecting the land in a reasonable and careful manner, easement would be necessary;
4. It has been utilized in a year prior to the disposition.
Therefore, if easement has not been maintained, it is not in Dev’s interest. Similarly, it is
not clear whether he knew or examined the house before buying it. Therefore, if a person do not
exceed the above limit, it does not depend on Dev's interests. If the legal rental period is less than
three years, Alison need to register or use the notice for security reasons. The establishment or
transfer of legal rights should outweigh the benefits specified in the contract. Pursuant to section
54 (2) of LPA,14 it is not necessary to enter into a short-term contractual lease agreement. Leases

are short-term, oral and urgent. Therefore, it can be said that Alison is related to the parties
concerned. From the aforementioned discussion, it could be ascertained that the rights of Barbara
and other parties mainly depend on the property’s registration, however, it cannot be stated that
Enid’s rights do not depend on Alison.
Conclusion
In conclusion, it could be stated that Alison owes the rights to other parties related to the
registered land that she purchased and she has to ensure that all the rights are provided to the
parties. If she fails to provide such rights, she will have to face liabilities under the enforced land
laws. It can also be concluded that the rights of the parties are protected under the relevant
statutory and case laws that are discussed in above sections. As far as the purchaser’s legally
binding relation is concerned, it can be concluded that the new purchaser can rely on the
provisions and case laws that are discussed and applied in the aforementioned section.
Part B
Issues
The main issues identified in the case scenario are that whether Andy can sell the
property free of the interests of the other parties or not. Another issue is whether or not a future
purchaser would be bound by any of the agreements he made.
Rules and Application
The aim for Land Registration Act 2002 is to completely change property rights in the
United Kingdom and Wales and to modernize the land register system. The owners of the
exchanged property want security easily and the buyers want to get rid of these rights. The Law
7
of Property Act 1925 provided protection by codifying and simplifying existing laws and
establishing a new land system to protect purchasers and third-party owners. Section 2 of LPA
1925 proposes a limited process that changes the creditor's equal interest in selling the
custodian's property, thereby protecting the purchaser of the deposited property purchased for at
least two trustees.
The section 198(1) of the Law of Property Act 1925 (LPA 1925) requires the registration
of land interests and provides buyers with an easier way to identify potential commissions and
protect third parties through guarantees.15 However, not all rights and benefits should be
considered as land. Anyone who buys legal property from unregistered land places it on the basis
of all other legal property and rights and pursues the equal interests of their knowledge. Or
message (true, suspicious or suspicious). Therefore, buyers should do the following searches and
inquiries to protect themselves.
As per section 198 (1) of the Law of Property Act 1925 (LPA 1925), registration is a real
declaration of benefits and the buyer must pay automatically. 16 Under section 199 (1) (i), interest
may be posted,17 but further notices will not affect the buyer if he is not actually on the list. Even
if he knows its importance, he will be released from the purchase. Therefore, in Midland Bank
Trust Co Ltd v Green,18 a third party is liable for his interests as protected by registration. Even if
the buyer knew that commissions existed.
Secondly, during the landlord's tenure, the landlord searches for the landlord's name
because the property name is not the property's address, but is registered at the time the fee is
created. As per case law stated in Oak Co-operative Building Society v Blackburn,19 it can be as

difficult as recording the wrong version of a person's name, assuming the full name of the
property owner who registered it is incorrect. For buyers who do not read everything or are
looking for the wrong name.
Further, in Diligent Finance v Alleyne,20 the use of the list of false names does not depend
on a third party. With a good history of at least 15 years, this means that the buyer may have the
unattended name of the previous owner who registered it. The land is responsible because no
prior agreement is required.21 However, section 25 provides that the purchaser may be
compensated in the event of damage in that situation.22 It should be noted that this is not a serious
problem as no allegations have been made. Thirdly, ownership actions involving the seller must
be fully justified, starting with the underlying assets, as equal rights holders record their rights on
an invoice which is taken care of by the buyers. As per case law stated in Worthington v
Morgan,23 the purchaser is responsible for all rights discovered during the inspection. Further,
this right was not inquired about and is deemed to have been notified by the purchaser.
Lastly, the buyer must arrange for the property to be inspected with a reasonable response
from the dealer. This point was provided by the court in Hunt v Luck.24 The decision in this case
shows the risk that an unregistered buyer of real estate would consider the right of appeal in any
appeal without examining that person. It is clear that taking informal action on this subject can
cause many problems and lead to stress and significant activity. Therefore, compulsory
registration for a degree is a major step forward. However, the original structure established by
the LRA 1925 was intact and included a negotiating document proposing to replace the current
law. The LRA 2002 aims to simplify and streamline the transfer process while improving the

security of buyers, sellers and all relevant third party interests. It aims to create a truly
transparent, accurate and comprehensive list, which will further support a development system
that allows the sale of registered land to be processed electronically.
Under section 70 (1) of the LPA 1925,25 reasonable and prudent purchasers do not register
an informal purchase of land through productive and constructive trusts and exclusive liens even
after the necessary searches. These rights are not easy to find, but they are still the property of
the disc and subsequent ownership. These interests are involved in many cases, some of them
have been discussed by the House of Lords in Pettitt v Pettitt.26 It was ruled in this case that
allies can benefit economically from the legal property of others. Further, in Williams & Glyn's
Bank v Boland,27 the court found that the rights of the beneficiary in a trust depend on the buyer
in the actual complaint. Besides, in Strand Securities v Caswell,28 the court argued that an
occupied person can be enjoyed only if his or her rights are known in law or rights and if the
person is his or her true profession.
The Court of Appeal in Thatcher v Douglas & Anor29 found that under section 70(1)(a) of
LPA 1925,30 the seller’s primary interest was reasonable easement. Notwithstanding, it was stated
in Celsteel Ltd v Alton House Holdings Ltd 31 that certain reasonable interests harm interests.
Another important case law was established in Webb v Pollmount Ltd32and the court stated that
any right of ownership is an overriding interest as long as the owner has land rights at the
relevant time.33 It is clear that, according to the problems associated with these decisions, the

breach of interest is not the only secondary liability. Their existence also means that absolute
degrees cannot be completed. It is worth noting that the existence of third - party rights, which
cannot be easily identified, seriously undermines the overall system of interpretation offered by
the negotiating document.
As per paragraph 2, Schedule 3 of LRA 2002, the parties in any position must not have
interest to the purchased land. If the applicant is examined before the sale is made and does not
show an interest in a reasonable expectation or if the application is not clear under reasonable
conditions, the interest shall not be protected. It is important for the purchaser to consider the
land carefully to see if anyone who claims to own the land and/or the owner of the registered
owner understands the rights. Further, this means prior control and the buyer is responsible for
handing it over to the actual owners of the buildings, instead of avoiding any interest. However,
the tenant is obliged to express his/her interests if necessary, otherwise the right to claim large
compensation is lost. Thus, there is a balance between buyer and tenant.
Third Party Rights
Among the various advantages of other owned or other owned lands, the main features of
builders are simple and limited contracts. However, before purchasing a site, care should be
taken with licensing and rental, closure, negative ownership, or other actions that may interfere
with the new owner. As per case law stated in Midland Bank Trust Co. v Green, the Land
Charges Act 1972 allows a third party to register a fair benefit, which means that the purchaser is
subject to prior notice.
A land use permit can be created by obtaining a legal permit for land that does not have
large plots of land, so that savings cannot simply be made. It is considered a legitimate interest of
11
the state and will be merged with a new owner in the future. English law usually imposes
contractual obligations on a contract of sale. Such special site inspections affect the continued
use of the property. Control contracts are considered contract restrictions and can be applied to
specific land developments or sub-items. The use of land during the construction phase or after
the completion of the project affects the residential area, the special needs of local people, the
road development project or the interests of visitors. Therefore, the rights of third parties should
be carefully examined before the tender procedure. Put a responsibility on the developer that
could affect the value of the land.
Conclusion
In conclusion, it can be stated that Andy cannot sell the property free of the interests of
the other parties because he has agreed at a certain price for which the parties are living in his 24
Kitty Corner, four-storey townhouse. Further, it can be concluded that the future purchaser
would be bound by any of the agreements he made because he/she has to be careful and ensure
that all the aforementioned points discussed prior to purchase of the registered land are
considered.
