Cost Consequence Trace — Seller identity and authority
Primary official evidence
Start with the current land-registry record: identify the registered owner, the person who will actually sign, and the document giving that person authority. Identity alone does not prove authority to dispose of this specific property. Translate each restriction or right into measurable financial consequences: release/correction cost, financing delay, reduced use, dispute exposure or lower resaleability. The existence of an entry alone does not show its economic size. Trace only consequences supported by the record—such as an identifiable fee, delay, use restriction or additional professional step—and do not invent a monetary estimate.
Key verification points
For Cost Consequence Trace — Seller identity and authority, TKGM and Web Tapu are primary references for matching the property, owner and transaction record; due diligence should start from the official registry rather than the advertisement.
