Anyone can search official land and property ownership records in Ontario using OnLand, your online source of information for the Ontario Land Registration System. The types of property information you can search include:

  • Mortgage and other property-related documents

If you’re researching facts about the past, the Ontario Historical Books digital library in OnLand contains a wealth of property information that can be retrieved in minutes. These are the digitized versions of original paper property records registered before the introduction of the Electronic Land Registration System (ELRS) in Ontario.

OnLand is a valuable and convenient resource for your research needs, containing many types of historical records, including:

  • Abstracts and Parcel Registers
  • First Registration Records

  • And more!

Community & Business

Using Teranet eXpress to access key information can help you make quicker, faster and more informed decisions.

If you’re interested in obtaining information about a property, it’s easy to register and convenient to use for:

  • Searching and Printing Property Titles (Parcel Registers)
  • Generating a Search Name Report (especially useful when you don’t have other property information) that can contain up to 20 names of a property holder in the Province of Ontario
  • Viewing Documents and Requesting Plans (Note: survey plans are not available in Teranet eXpress. You can contact your lawyer, your mortgage company, or a licenced professional surveyor to obtain a survey.)

Teranet eXpress also provides the ability to search Writs of Execution by name and number, and is the only application where you can perform a province-wide OWL (Ontario Writs Locator) search.
