SLA launches free online information service for property owners

Property owners can now access free information on their property on the Singapore Land Authority’s new online service, MyProperty. (StraitsTimesNews)

The online service is available at www.sla.gov.sg/MyProperty and members of the public need their SingPass to log in. To start with, property owners can view their title deeds and boundary plans on MyProperty. Additional features will be rolled out in phases, including online alerts to property owners of any document lodged against their property title and records related to their property including caveat and mortgage documents.

Currently, members of the public who wish to view a property’s title deed or any encumbrance, such as a caveat lodged against it, must purchase the information via SLA’s Integrated Land Information Service (INLIS) or over the counter.

A fee of S$5.25 to S$16 is payable depending on the type of information required and a person checking on his own property has to pay the same fees. With the launch of MyProperty, property owners can now view their own title information without charge.

From Aug 31, the online service includes all private property titles and about 130,000 HDB property titles that have been digitised so far. The rest of the HDB property titles are expected to go online by end-2019, said SLA.
