Applicant established a reasonably arguable equitable interest in the land (capable of being protected by a caveat) based on her capital contributions in the joint venture context which may give rise to an implied trust (resulting or constructive). The caveat is sustained but subject to conditions: applicant must commence substantive proceedings by set date and must consent to reasonable arm's length third-party transactions (including refinancing or sale) with protection of her interest in any proceeds.
