Land Law, 3rd Edition

The second edition of Land Law was published in 1995. As The Honourable Justice, VK Rajah - Judge of Appeal, says in his insightful foreword to the third edition, there has been a sea-change in land law in Singapore since then.

There have been important amendments to many of the statutes relevant to land law, and a number of very significant cases from the Court of Appeal and High Court. The leading example, perhaps, is the Court of Appeal's decision in United Overseas Bank Ltd v Bebe binte Mohammad [2006] 4 SLR 884, which has clarified many issues pertaining to the Land Titles Act.

The aim of the book remains the same - to make palatable and readable, an area of the law that many find difficult to grasp. The book is written with students, practitioners, estate agents and all who are interested in this area of the law, in mind.

Important Features:
· The chapter on Leases, have been expanded
· More comprehensive survey of the law is provided
· A number of chapters have been re-crafted in recognition of the virtual disappearance of unregistered land.
