This Act regulates the registration of mortgages. All persons holding mortgages or other conditional conveyances of property which shall be made and executed by any person or persons in respect of any property situate in Bermuda shall deposit for registration in the office of the Registrar General a memorandum containing the particulars as set out in section 1. Non registration implies that other persons can mortgage or conditionally convey the same property. Charges on property of company other than on land in Bermuda cannot be registered under this Act.
