    I have been informed if a Commercial lease has a term of more than 3 years, it must be registered. Is that correct?

    Say you bought a property with a current tenant & the lease wasn't registered. What happens if the lease isn't registered? How much & where do you register the lease? Are there any legal issues now or down the track?

    How do you check if a Commercial lease is registered or not? Is there a free site to check this somehow?

The registration serves to alert owners/mortgagees etc that there is a lesser interest in place.

    Fee for service – it takes a title search to reveal all encumbrances
