Marketable Record Title Act
At the April 2024 HLPOA Board meeting, Attorney Bill Carey addressed recent amendments to the MRTA (Marketable Record Title Act). The amendments deal with whether deed restrictions may become unenforceable if the restrictions are not rerecorded at least every 40 years. At this time, while the amendments have been adopted into law, the deadline for rerecording has been modified twice. A lengthy discussion was held about the legal aspects of preserving important building and use restrictions. There is currently a deadline for rerecording of September 29, 2025, for anyone intending to file a Notice of Claim under the MRTA. Some Higgins Lake associations and subdivisions may especially be impacted by MRTA changes.
