Condo Application for Transfer (Part II: Setup) - Instructions

Use this Application in conjunction with the Application for Transfer (Part I – Surrender). Each new title being created requires a separate Application for Transfer (Part II – Setup).

Example: Kevin is transferring a condominium unit to Natasha and Leonard, who will own as tenants in common. Since this results in two separate ownership shares you must complete two Applications for Transfer (Part II – Setup) to create their titles.

Example: A parcel is being subdivided into three smaller parcels. Tom, Debra, and Anthony will each own one of the resulting parcels. In this case, you must complete three separate Application for Transfer (Part II – Setup) to create their titles.


Use this Application to:

  • To set up a title in the name of one owner (sole owner)
  • To set up a title in the name of one of separate owners (tenants in common)
  • To set up title in the name of joint owners (joint tenants)

Your completed Packet should include:
  • Packet Cover Page*
  • Application for Transfer (Part I - Surrender)*
  • Authorization(s) as required:
    • Transform Authorization (Multiple Titles)*
    • Transform/Multiple Transfer Authorization*
    • Consent of Mortgagee to Transform*
  • Affidavit of Value*
  • Application for Transfer (Part II: Setup)
  • Application for Parking Space Interest Registration/Amendment(if applicable) 
  • Title Print Request (Optional)*

 * See the corresponding Instruction Sheets for more information.
** If setting up initial titles to condominium units, additional applications may be required.

NOTE:  Tenants in common have separate titles.  Joint tenants have only one title. Be sure to complete the right number of set-up applications.

How to complete an Application for Transfer (Part II – Setup):

NOTE:  Complete the Application Sequence Number

Complete only those sections below that apply.

NOTE: All applications for condominium surrenders and set ups may be done online through our OLS tool.

Step 1: Complete this section if dealing with a transform (including condominium plans):

New Parcel Number – Enter the number of the new parcel associated with the title setup. This information is located on the Transform Approval Certificate (TAC). The TAC is issued by Plan Processing after it has reviewed and approved a plan.  

For a condominium plan, enter the new parcel number located on the TAC.

Transform Number – Enter the number as it appears on the TAC.

Condominium Unit Number – If this is a condominium transform, enter the number of the new units associated with this title setup. Otherwise, leave blank.

Parking Unit - If you are setting up a condominium parking unit, enter the parking unit number here (transform OR transfer).

New Link to Unit Number – Use this when you are changing the current link. If the unit you are dealing with in this application will be linked to a new unit, enter that new unit number here (transfer ONLY).

Example: Your application is a setup for condo unit #1. This unit is currently linked to parking unit #5, however, you want to change the linked parking unit from #5 to #6. Enter “6” in the box.

Step 2: Complete this section if you are not dealing with a transform

Previous Title Numbers – Enter the previous title number(s) that have been surrendered to create this title being set up. The titles entered must all refer to the same parcel.

Example: Fritz and Lil are tenants in common owners of a condominium unit. Lil is moving away and selling her share to Fritz. Enter the two title numbers that refer to Fritz and Lil’s shares. Use the application to set up one new title for Fritz (sole owner).

Application Sequence Numbers – Complete if you are transferring titles that were created earlier in this packet. Enter the number of the application(s) that created the title(s).

Step 3: New Owners

Check the box that applies. This is usually “single owner” or “joint tenants” or “tenant in common”. Use “joint tenants with no survivorship” if the new owners are trustees and the trust document specifically directs the trustees to hold the title on this basis.

 Single Owner  Joint Tenants
 Tenant in Common  Joint Tenants with no survivorship

If multiple titles are being transferred to a single owner, check Single Owner box. If one previous title or multiple titles are being transferred to owners who will be tenants in common, check Tenant in Common box and complete a separate Application for Transfer (Part II - Setup) for each owner who will be a tenant in common.

Step 4: Fractional Title Share

This represents the title share in the parcel or condominium unit. If there is only one owner or all owners are joint tenants for the parcel or unit, enter 1/1.

If there are two or more owners who are tenants in common, the fractional shares can be expressed with different denominations as long as all the title shares for that parcel or condominium unit equal 1/1, e.g. three owners may be 2/3, 1/6 and 1/6.

* The title share may depend on the title being surrendered. Example: If the surrendered title represents a 1/2 interest in the parcel, and the title is being transferred to Carl and Edie as joint tenants, their new title must have a fraction title share of 1/2.

NOTE: If there is a titled parking unit, the same ownership fraction must be appear on the linked residential unit title.

Step 5: New Title Value

Enter the fair market value of the title, rounded down to the nearest dollar. This value must be consistent with the information in the Affidavit of Value.

Step 6: For each new owner, complete one of Section A or Section B

Section A - New Owner(s) with Client Numbers(s)

Client Number(s) - If the new owner has an ISC client number, enter it here. If the new owner is a corporate entity, you must use an ISC client number that is linked to its Corporate Registry (COBRA) entity number. For client numbers, call 1-866-275-4721.

Client Name– Enter the client name. The name must exactly match that given for the client number in the Land Registry Database, or the application will be rejected. For corporations, we will accept small variations from the name associated with the client number.

* Repeat for any new additional joint owners. Use Additional Title Owners form if needed.

What if the information associated with your Client Number has changed?

If your address has changed, complete a Client Application Form and submit to e-Business separately. Wait until your address change is confirmed before you submit this application.

If your name has changed, complete an Affidavit of Identity and Change of Name form and submit separately to e-Business. Submit this application when the change is confirmed.

Section B - New Owner(s) without Client Number(s)

Complete this section if the new owner does not have an ISC client number. If the new owner is a corporation, you must complete Section A; do not use Section B.

Enter in full the name of the individual that will be a new owner. You must provide full names and refrain from using initials.

Enter in full the address and phone number of the new owner. If available, enter the email address and the fax number.

Step 7: Check or enter details in one of the following three choices

No Conditions - Check this box if you will accept registration of this transfer subject to any interests registered against the title or existing in the Saskatchewan Judgement Registry  Registry at the time that this application is processed.

Conditional Registration Date and Time - Complete this box if you will accept registration subject to interests registered on the title or existing in the Judgement Registry at a particular date and time. Enter the date as dd-mm-yyyy and the time as hh:mm:ss. For example, if you searched a title on October 15, 2003, at 2:30 p.m. and chose this date and time, you would enter 15-10-2003 and 14:30:00.

Free and Clear Registration – Check this box if you will accept transfer only if there are no interests on the title at the time this application is processed.

* Please note that if the last two types of registration conditions cannot be met, then your Application for Transfer (Part II - Setup) cannot be processed and will be rejected.

Step 8: Subject to Saskatchewan Judgement Registry: judgement or maintenance order numbers

This section is optional. But if you choose a registration type of either Conditional or Free and Clear, you may want to search the Saskatchewan Judgement Registry to determine if there are any judgements or maintenance orders that will auto-attach when this packet is registered.

Example: This application is being used to transfer a title to Allison Whyte. A search of the Judgement Registry shows one item that applies - a judgment interest registration in the name of “Allison Whyte” that will automatically attach when the new title is issued.

Ms. Whyte acknowledges she is this judgment debtor so she will accept this interest against her new title but no other interests. Indicate Free and Clear as the registration type and enter in the space provided the number of the judgment found in the Judgment Registry.

  • Enter the Saskatchewan Judgment Registry Number of the judgment(s) that will auto-attach as a result of this packet and which the new owner is prepared to accept on title.
  • Enter the Saskatchewan Judgment Registry Number of the maintenance order(s) that will auto-attach in this packet and which the new owner is prepared to accept on title.

Step 9: Application Sequence Number

Enter the number indicating the order of this application in the packet. For example, if it is the second of three applications, indicate “2”.

NOTE: All sheets submitted in an application or packet should be single-sided.



More about Joint Tenants and Tenants in Common:


Joint Tenants – In this type of ownership, two or more persons own a title jointly. For example, Abe and Ruth are joint owners of a quarter section of land. Their title share is 1/1 as they own jointly. There is only one title to the land, issued in the name of Abe and Ruth, as joint tenants. If the ownership is indicated on title as “joint tenants”, without further specification, there is an automatic right of survivorship should one of the owners die. If Abe passed away, his share in the title would pass to Ruth. (see Application for Transfer to Surviving Joint Tenant).

Tenants in Common – Owners who are tenants in common have separate rights of ownership and, therefore, separate titles associated with the same parcel or condominium unit. Each owner’s specific share is indicated on his or her title. However, all the fractional title shares for that parcel of land or mineral, or for that condominium unit must add up to 1/1.

For example, Giovanna, Jean, and Vijay are tenants in common of a cabin property. They own the property as follows: Giovanna has ½ share, Jean has ¼ share, and Vijay has ¼ share. There is no right of survivorship in this type of ownership, and each owner is free to deal with his or her share/title separately. For example, Jean could transfer his ¼ share to Evangeline.

Scenario 1 – May Kozak and Frank Kozak jointly own a condo unit and are selling this unit to Jack Adams and Sue Friesner who will own as Tenants in Common with unequal shares.


Scenario 2 – Arthur Dombowksy is selling the NW ¼ to Lee Wilkinson and John Toews and Jane Toews. Lee will own ¼ share in the land, and the Toews will jointly own ¾ share.


Scenario 3 – Steve Wong and Edward Chan currently own a property as tenants in common, each with a ½ share. Ed is selling his ½ interest to Sandra O’Connell and Martin Fry, who will own that interest as tenants in common, with Sandra taking a 1/4 share and Martin a 1/4 share.
