Section 5(4) requires the statutory declaration to be tied to the particular purchase (between contract formation and within three months after completion) to have the statutory conclusive effect; a declaration made outside that window is ineffective to cure title for subsequent purchasers, leaving only evidential protection under s5(2); accordingly the plaintiff was entitled to rescind.
