Whether you're a homeowner curious about your own title, a buyer doing due diligence, a lawyer preparing a file, or an investor evaluating a parcel of land, accurate Property Records are essential. LandTitleSearch.ca makes it easy to look up property information from coast to coast — Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec, and every other province and territory — all from one trusted online platform.
Property Records — sometimes called Land Records or land registry documents — are the official documents held by each provincial Land Registry that describe a parcel of real estate and everything legally attached to it. Because these records are matters of public record in Canada, anyone can request a copy. They form the legal backbone of every real estate transaction in the country.
A standard Property Records search will typically include:
The full legal name(s) and mailing address of the registered owner(s)
The legal land description and Parcel Identifier (PID, PIN, or Linc Number, depending on the province)
The date the property was last transferred and the registered purchase price (where applicable)
Active mortgages, charges, builder's liens, judgements, and tax liens
Easements, rights-of-way, restrictive covenants, and other non-financial encumbrances
The taxation authority and applicable land use designations
Together, these records give you a complete legal snapshot of any property registered in Canada.
Many Canadians don't realise just how to look up property information without making a trip to a government office. Our platform pulls directly from official provincial registries — the Ontario Land Registry, Alberta Land Registry, Quebec Land Registry, BC's Land Title and Survey Authority, and Manitoba Land Titles — so you get verified, court-ready results in minutes.
To run a Property Search, you'll generally need one of the following:
Civic Address The street address is the easiest place to start for most properties in urban centres. We'll match it to the registered legal description and pull the corresponding Land Records.
Legal Description or Parcel Identifier The legal description (Lot, Block, Plan, Township, Range, Meridian) or the parcel identifier issued by the province is the most accurate search method, especially for rural or unaddressed land. You'll find these on a recent property tax notice or assessment notice.
Owner's Name Searching the Land Registry by an individual's or company's name will return every parcel registered under that name within the province — handy for estate work, asset searches, or corporate due diligence.
Title or Instrument Number If you've got a title number from a previous transaction or an instrument number from a registered document, we can pull current or historical records directly.
Before any offer is signed, both buyers and sellers benefit from reviewing current Property Records. The records confirm clear ownership, flag outstanding mortgages or liens, and reveal any restrictive covenants that could affect future renovations or resale value.
Realtors, notaries, lawyers, mortgage brokers, appraisers, and title insurers across Canada depend on quick access to Land Registry data every day. Our service delivers official copies fast, so you can keep deals moving and clients happy.
Most municipalities in Canada require a current Property Records search when processing rezoning applications, building permits, or subdivision approvals. Developers and builders also rely on these records when assembling land or evaluating new sites.
Executors, family lawyers, and individuals handling estates regularly need to confirm what real property a person owned. A name-based search of the provincial Land Registry will surface every parcel registered under that individual.
Historical Land Records can be traced back through previous owners — sometimes all the way to the original Crown grant. This is invaluable for family historians, heritage researchers, and anyone wanting to understand a property's full chain of title.
Every province operates its own Land Registry system, each with slightly different rules, formats, and terminology. From the Ontario Land Registry (now largely accessible online through Teranet) and BC's Land Title and Survey Authority, to the Alberta Land Registry, Manitoba Land Titles, and the Quebec Land Registry (Registre foncier du Québec), the systems can be confusing to navigate on your own. LandTitleSearch.ca brings them all together under one roof — one website, one ordering process, one familiar interface — no matter where the property is located.
We also support Manitoba Property Search, Saskatchewan ISC searches, and registries for the Atlantic provinces and the territories.
