title deeds

Title deeds are legal documents proving ownership of property, especially land or buildings.

The phrase typically appears in plural because property transfers accumulate multiple documents over time—original purchases, mortgage releases, boundary agreements.

The solicitor held the title deeds until the sale completed.

In Monopoly, title deeds are the cards representing owned properties.
