Humber/Ontario Real Estate Course 1 Exam Practice

Which of the following is true if a properly consented reference plan is not created when dividing a property?

1. The property conveyance must involve someone other than a family member to be valid

2. The daughter has a valid title for the new lot that could be registered locally

3. The newly created lot has no legal status without appropriate consents and approvals

4. A reference plan alone is sufficient to establish legal title for the new partition

5. The reference plan immediately gives the daughter full ownership

6. All parts on a reference plan are automatically valid

The correct answer is: The newly created lot has no legal status without appropriate consents and approvals

If a properly consented reference plan is not created when dividing a property, the newly created lot would have no legal status without the appropriate consents and approvals. This means that even though a division or transfer of land might have taken place physically, legally, the created lot would not have any standing or recognition without the necessary consents and approvals from the relevant authorities. Options A, B, D, E, and F do not accurately reflect the implications of not having a properly consented reference plan in place. Option A suggests a requirement for involvement of someone other than a family member, which is not directly related to the absence of a reference plan. Option B talks about the daughter having valid title and registering locally, but the absence of a reference plan would impact the legal status of the newly created lot. Option D mentions that a reference plan alone is sufficient for legal title, which is not true as legal status involves more than just the reference plan. Option E states that the reference plan immediately gives full ownership, which is not the case without the necessary consents and approvals. Option F implies that all parts on a reference plan are automatically valid; however, validity depends on meeting the required consents and approvals.
