No disposition by the proprietors of the

       gives a certificate, that the disposition is in accordance with trust

       deed dated 8 December 2017 made between [name] and

       [name] or some variation thereof referred to in the

       declaration, statement or certificate.

I have been asked “ Please confirm whether you hold a statement or certificate dated 8th December 2017?”
What does that mean? 

Thank you 

I suspect they really meant to ask if you’ve got the Trust Deed of that date. Or they’ve misread the restriction, which is self-explanatory. 

I guess the key Q is who’s asked you and why? 

My buyers solicitor has asked as I’m selling the property.

Are you doing your own conveyancing? If the question has come via your solicitor, it's them from whom you should be seeking advice - or really, who should have already given you guidance about it.

Hello there,

I am looking for some advice on behalf of my mother. My mother has not been on speaking terms with my grandfather who passed away five years ago. Out of the blue her elder brother got in contact last week with a copy of land registry form 19 where in Feb 2019, it looks like the property title was transferred to my mother from her younger brother. 

The form was a shock to my mother. We did a search on the title deed on the land registry website (MX61700) and the property is in my mother's name - name and address are incorrect. 

The downloaded sheet shows no mortgage outstanding, but we are worried about her other brothers trying to take the house back or of any loans attached to the property. Should we enlist the help of a solicitor to help us? Can you provide any advice?

Kind regards

Concerned son.

Ok - well they need you to comply with the restriction wording, namely provide them with your own stat Dec or statement of truth OR your conveyancer provides them with a certificate to confirm the sale is in accordance with the trust

I would always recommend using a solicitor if you are in a legal argument over ownership of a property. 

I don’t quite follow the reference to form 19 dated 2019 as that form of transfer wasn’t used after 2003 and it’s a form TR1 now. But as you state the registered legal ownership hasn’t changed for a number of years anyway.

Hi @Land_Registry, is there an issue with payments through the LR site today? I've tried to buy Title register and Title plan for a property and the card payment has been declined with 4 cards (2 debit, 2 credit, 2 Visa, 2 Mastercard) from 3 different banks. It seems unlikely that all 3 banks would have an issue at the same time so perhaps you have a problem today.

Not aware of any issues and in my experience it tends to be where you are using them from (country) that impacts on the payment service provider and the security protections they have in place

I'm in England, so I wouldn't expect that to be an issue. I have resolved it by accessing the LR site using Microsoft Edge rather than Firefox and the payment has gone through successfully, perhaps you could confirm whether this is a technical limitation in your payment processing.

It’s not our payment processing service but Firefox can, as I understand it, be an issue
