How do I know if easements are in place on a property for access? Nothing is actually listed on the register or plan logged on HM Land registry .
When neighbour's house was sold it was not detailed as having off road parking. It was sold buy to let and current tenants now moving out but agent has listed the rental property as having parking to rear
Thanks

It stated this:A: Property RegisterThis register describes the land and estate comprised in the title. Except as mentioned below, the title includes any legal easements granted by the registered lease but is subject to any rights that it reserves, so far as those easements and rights exist and benefit or affect the registered land.XXXXXXXXXXXX : XXXXXXXXXX1 (27.04.1995) The Leasehold land shown edged with red on the plan of the above Title filed at the Registry and being XXXXXXX .2 (27.04.1995) Short particulars of the lease(s) (or under-lease(s)) under which the land is held: Date : 18 April 1929Term : 999 years from 25 March 1929Rent : £6.5s.0dParties : (1) XXXXXXXX(2) XXXXXXXXXNOTE: The Lease comprises also other land

Maybe also contact the letting agent to put them straight before the new tenants start using the access across your parents land; explain they're advertising something they can't offer. I like a trail (paperless these days) so drop the agent an email.

There’s a difference between giving someone verbal permission and a right (easement) being granted by way of a legal deed.The register doesn’t refer but that’s no surprise based on your description. So the other option is was it granted in the lease itself but that seems unlikely too if they just gave permission as you state“Official Company Representative
