Hi,
I've just purchased a small plot of land, from the local council, next to my own property and need to fill in an FR1 registration form but wondered which option I need to put in terms of the type of registration and fees please? Thanks in advance…

Okay, I suppose I haven't worded this very well… I'm trying to ascertain whether the First Registration (FR1) is the correct kind of registration for registering the piece of land I have just purchased, which is adjacent to my currently held freehold property? Thanks in advance…0

Is it currently unregistered?0

Thanks… How would I confirm this please? It was part of the local council communal gardens…0

First Registration only applies if the land in question is unregistered.
To find out if it's registered you would need to access the Map Search on the Land Registry Government website, but I think you have to be a business user, i.e. solicitor/conveyancer.0 -
If you have purchased it, you will know if it is unregistered or registered, because you will have negotiated a contract and investigated the title to the land on that basis....or if you didn't then you're a good advert for why trying to do these jobs yourself without any experience or skill is perhaps not worth it.0

Oh yes, of course, I have the TP1 form from the council, with the land registration number. So I guess I'm just asking which form I need to use to now register it in my name? I'm presuming the FR1? Thanks in advance…0

And there was me thinking this was a forum in which to enquire… xSmashedAvacado wrote: »If you have purchased it, you will know if it is unregistered or registered, because you will have negotiated a contract and investigated the title to the land on that basis....or if you didn't then you're a good advert for why trying to do these jobs yourself without any experience or skill is perhaps not worth it.0
