HM Land Registry portal: official search of whole with priority

How Business e-services customers can apply for an official search of whole with priority through the portal.

Applies to England and Wales

An official search of whole with priority is used to protect a transaction for value that affects the whole of the land in a registered title, eg a purchase, a lease or a charge.

The search prevents registration of an adverse interest for 30 business days (the priority period) to allow the applicant to lodge the protected application. The search result will tell you:

  • any alterations made to the register since the search from date
  • any pending applications, existing official searches with priority or outline applications which provide short term priority for classes of transaction that are not capable of protection by official search
