Hi Guys,

I was wondering if it possible to do a search to see if there are any loans etc outstanding on a property?

Thanks,

    Do you mean

    1. loans secured on a property or

    2. loans taken out by people who live there (nut not secured) and which might show on a credit search?

    If the former, obtaining copy Land Registry entries for the property (from https://www.landregistry.gov.uk - NOT the sites that appear official at the top in Google) will show you.

    As a retired conveyancing solicitor I believe the information given in the post to be useful assuming any properties concerned are in England/Wales but I accept no liability for it.

    Thanks Richard.

    I mean the first point - secured loans on the property.

    I am thinking about taking on my girlfriend's ex-boyfriends share of their mortgage, but am worried he has loans secured against the property
