IANAL, but that sounds like a standard developer trying to keep the existing sold properties looking good, until the rest of the estate is sold.

Once they've sold the last one, the parking, picket fences and so on are usually uncontested

Thanks.

But this is on a co uplewho oowned a piece of land sold part of it in 1957 and placed the covenant on the purchased land at the time to protect the remaining piece of land.

They then sold the remaining land in 1967 but did not mention anything on the land reg istrytit le deed about the covenant placed on the other property.

Now the land with the covenant is been sold for the first time since 1957 whilst the adjouring proper ty has been sold on three different occasions since 1967

Hi land reg,

You mentioned that the covenant stands evenif the purchaser had sold to others

What about the original vendor if:

A) they have passed away In most cases the benefit passes to the inheritors of the covenant
if the original adjoining property that the vendor was protecting have since sold down on three occasion and the covenant is not mentioned on the land registry document of the adjoining property
In most cases the benefit passes to the new owners of the covenant
Thanks

You'd need to read the terms of the covenant though.

You do realise this a 6 month old thread...?

Thanks GM.

Yes I do realise that it's 6 months old but still very relevant to what I am trying toffind out.

I am waiting for the survey to come back before appointing a solicitor and letting him to deal with it.

Meanwhile just wanted to check on what people here thinks
