Hi,
we are about to make an offer and I followed the suggestion to get the Register from the Land Registry. However, as this is law speak and I'm not native English, I was wondering whether this is a normal register. I've blacked out all the names (of private persons):

Many thanks,
Andre

    Yes - that is a normal register

    What is it that you are unsure of?

    It is normal.

    However, your conveyancer/solicitor should explain to you about the covenants in C Charges Register.

    Basically it means the land shown in green on the Plan (have you got the Plan?) cannot be over-developed with new housing. Not more than 62.5 people can be housed in each acre (I assume that relates to number of bedrooms).

    There is also a 2nd Transfer (legal agreement) dated 8 April 1982 with covenants (rights and/or responsibilities). To understand these, you will need to look at the Transfer itself - Again, you solicior will do this and explain, or you could buy the Transfer from the Land Registry (£7) and read it.
