Provides full coverage of the property, trusts and succession parts of the LLB syllabus in Scottish universities in one convenient volume. The relevant rules of statute and common law are surveyed and frequent examples used, making this a highly practical and accessible text.
The new fourth edition includes coverage of:
- Coronavirus: The epidemic has led to new legislation for property transactions, for instance the closure of the Land Register to paper deeds. Many of these 2020 changes are likely to prove permanent
- New cases: Significant decisions since the 3rd edition include Renyana-Stahl Anstalt 2018 SC 406 (access to land), Ali v Serco Ltd 2020 SC 182 (eviction) Ardnamurchan Estates Ltd v MacGregor 2020 SLT (Sh Ct) 49 (prescriptive title to land) and Scottish Woodlands Ltd v Majekodunmi 2020 Hous LR 23 (upkeep of common areas)
- Impending legislation: The combination of Brexit and Coronavirus has slowed down the progress of most legislative initiatives. Since the 3rd edition a number of such initiatives have joined the queue, most of which can be expected to be enacted within the foreseeable future, and accordingly an edition of the book appearing in 2021 should alert readers to them. Examples include (i) the Moveable Transactions Bill (major changes to the law of moveable property), (ii) Register of Overseas Entities Bill (with changes to the Land Registration legislation, (iii) the draft Register of Persons Holding a Controlled Interest in Land) (Scotland) Regulations (registration of beneficial ownership of land); (iv) reform of the law of real burdens (Scottish Law Commission's 2019 Report on Section 53 of the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003).
