I think that means it is not registered and they have nothing for you to download.  When I search for my house which I inherited in 2009 it says

Please purchase the title register to see the price paid/ value stated for this property

instead of the

Sorry, there is no ... message that you have.

Providing your stack of documents that you have is in order, the solicitor will be able to make the first registration so that the house can be sold.  I had to pay an additional £100 to the solicitor.

Thanks. I notice there is a Land Registry Q&A on here so will ask them to clarify.

You say you have the deeds. Does this mean the property is unregistered?

If unsure, check here.

No. I was given the deeds by my lender when I paid off the mortgage

If you have a pile of paperwork it may be registered or unregistered - use the link provided by canaldumidi above to check.  Buying houses within the  few decades triggered registration. 

If your house has not been sold for many years it may need registration.  The implication of that is that it is very sensible to let a solicitor do this.

Thanks. I have owned the house for 30 years. I checked the link and photo is what it says but I'm non the wiser of it means it's registered or not?

That seems completely clear to me. It is registered, and they will sell you a copy of the title for £3, and the same for the plan. They don't have the price you paid 30 years ago available.

What's unclear?
