CT HB07064

Removes the January 1, 1997 recording date restriction from Connecticut's Validating Act, extending protections to all recorded real property instruments regardless of when they were recorded

Validates recorded deeds, mortgages, leases, and other real property instruments containing defects such as missing acknowledgments, insufficient witnesses, or improper entity signatures, unless challenged within two years of recording

Automatically validates instruments with minor defects including incorrect or missing execution dates, non-compliant subdivision maps, missing consideration statements, or missing grantee addresses

Allows instruments executed under an unrecorded power of attorney to be validated unless challenged within 15 years or the instrument fails to evidence fair market value consideration

Validates releases or assignments of mortgages by out-of-state fiduciaries even without required certificate of appointment, unless challenged within two years of recording

Effective July 1, 2025
