    Thank you so much for your reply.

    I presume that applicant means conveyancer.

    Whoever lodged it at the time so if the conveyancer then yes.

    Form AP1 panel 9 asks them to confirm the contact details to be entered

    Hello, I have a question please, we have been approached by our neighbour who is a well known developer. We have on the deeds one allocated parking space but you have up to four cars as our parking is located at the end of a cul de sac which nobody else has access to unless they were to park away from their house. Now the developer needs are parking to gain access to the site he wishes to build on. He has currently offered to build us a garage. I have said a garage is not good enough and i want a garage parking for two cars and pocket money to agree to selling our space. From what i can see it looks like a ransom strip so effectively they cannot build without our parking space. How much would are parking space be worth and what would a reasonable offer be if they can build up to six 3 and 4 bedroom houses. advice will be much appreciated thank you.

    If it is a ransom strip and the developer has no other means of access, you could be entitled to a 3rd of the Land Value!

    We do not register deeds of trust as such or the %s but their existence can be protected on the register by way of a restriction. See our online guidance on Joint property ownership and Private trusts

    A deed of trust deals with the beneficial ownership of the property. We register the legal ownership. As far as additional protection is concerned the existence of a restriction can indicate that such a trust exists and therefore cause a lender, buyer or indeed owner to take note.

    For example if a form A restriction is registered then a surviving sole owner can't take receipt of capital monies on their own but must appoint someone to do so with them. That can hamper their ability to sell or mortgage for example.

    The thread was set up by MSE but as posters ask Qs both here and in their own threads we post replies in both where appropriate.

    In single threads we will find them when we search for 'land registry' and the poster has included those word(s)

    Hi Land Registry,

    I'm in the process of buying a property but looking at the Title plan the red line that indicates the ownership has been drawn through the porch which sits proud of the main building and boundary walls.

    The property is a listed building and this is part of the original build, so it has always been this way. Can the LR records be corrected? Do they need to be?

    Thanks.

    If part of the property you are buying is outside of the red outline that is something you need to raise witht he seller.

    There could be one of a few reasons as to why it is so

    It could be an error either in theregistration or the original conveyancing deeds or both

    It could also be a case that the ownership is registered under more than one title so the 'missing part' is registered separately for some reason

    Or it has been registered correctly based on what was applied for on first registration and they are effectively occupying more land than is registered

    I'd suggest raising it with the seller and asking them to clarify/confirm

    Yes that's being done, it appears this is how the property was when they brought it and was not raised as a problem when they purchased themselves. So they never investigated anything.

    Hi I have purchased several leasehold leases, can you confirm if there was any deed of variations to the leases it would be noted on the title register list?
    Thanks
