When you must register

This guide is also available in Welsh (Cymraeg).

You must register all land or property with HM Land Registry if you바카라 사이트™ve:

  • bought it
  • been given it
  • inherited it
  • received it in exchange for other property or land
  • mortgaged the property

You do not usually need to register leasehold land or property if there are 7 years or less on the lease when you take ownership.

You must register your land with the Rural Land Register as well as HM Land Registry if you own agricultural land.

Your property might not be registered if you owned it before 1990 and have not mortgaged it since. Check if your property바카라 사이트™s registered.

  • the names of the owners
  • a plan of the property바카라 사이트™s 바카라 사이트˜general바카라 사이트™ boundaries - the plan will not show where the exact legal boundaries are
