UK title register check — live HMLR pull
Order an official HM Land Registry title register and get a buyer-readable summary in the same report. Tenure, lease length, registered owners, charges, restrictions, restrictive covenants — all in plain English.
What's in a title register?
- Property register — description, plan reference, tenure (freehold/leasehold), and any rights of way.
- Proprietorship register — current registered owners, price paid (if registered after April 2000), and any restrictions on selling.
- Charges register — mortgages, restrictive covenants, easements, and other third-party rights.
How is this different from buying it from gov.uk for £7?
HM Land Registry sells the raw PDF for £7. We add four things buyers actually need:
- A plain-English summary translating legal language into "what this means for you".
- An automated lease-length analysis with traffic-light warnings (sub-80 years = serious).
- Cross-referencing against flood, planning, listed-building, and coal mining datasets so the title sits in context.
- A permanent online report URL you can send to your solicitor or use to renegotiate the offer.
