Just title

Just Title
Ownership of a property on which there are no competing claims. That is, if a property has undisputed ownership, its owner is said to have just title. An owner with just title may sell the property without any encumbrances. In general, a real estate broker researches a property to ensure that there are no competing claims. It is also called clear title. See also: Quitclaim deed.

just title

A title that seemed to be proper and legal, although defective in some regard. In some states, persons with a defective title may gain full title to the property if they use the property for a certain period of time, claim it as their own, and have such title such as would give rise to a good-faith belief that the property was theirs.
