Which one of the following situations best exemplifies the doctrine of constructive notice under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
The buyer deemed to know of the registered lease best illustrates constructive notice. The law can attribute knowledge even though the buyer did not actually check the records, provided the statutory registration and recording conditions are satisfied. Discovering an easement during inspection or being expressly told of a mortgage gives actual knowledge instead.
