Interesting question, I'm not sure. Although surely allocating title numbers before the title was processed would lead to a massive amount of non-valid title numbers kicking around in the public domain if the application then wasn't successful?user1977 said:
Isn't a title number allocated as soon as they take on the application?Slithery said:
If it's a TP1 then what would they be registering the alert against? The title doesn't exist yet on the LR's electronic records...canaldumidi said:But to put your mind at ease, why not register for the free 'alert' sevice. You can do this for any property, not just one you own, or one registered in your name (I have an alert on my elderly father's house).
Any input please @Land_Registry1 -

Don't know, but OP could find out if there's a title number or not. Maybe post on the LR thread.user1977 said:

Make sure it's the title number for your property, rather than the one for the larger estate - otherwise all you'll get are notifications every time another house is sold...Pow11890 said:

user1977 said:Make sure it's the title number for your property, rather than the one for the larger estate - otherwise all you'll get are notifications every time another house is sold...Yes. The conveyancing pack is likely to show the existingTitle number of the entire Estate owned by the developer. This will be a huge area. You will be buying a part of this title number (hence form TP1 'Transfer of Part'). As the estate is sold off bit by bit, each property sold will then get a new title number of its own, maybe when the application is lodged, but I suspect more likely as slithery originally said, when the application is processed.If it's a TP1 then what would they be registering the alert against?

Wait times are around 10-11 months on average but it is very much an average and may wait significantly longer. If it’s a waiting game then most can just wait as their purchase is protected.Pow11890 said:@Land_Registry any thoughts on this please?

I have just had a look and you are correct the title number in the pack on tp1 forms is currently the entire estate. It’s not Plot specific. I presume we will be a assigned a title number in the upcoming year once LR get to us? canaldumidi said:user1977 said:Make sure it's the title number for your property, rather than the one for the larger estate - otherwise all you'll get are notifications every time another house is sold...Yes.
