Official Copy of the Title Register
Get an official record of property ownership directly from HM Land Registry — fast, secure, and fully digital.
An Official Copy of the Title Register confirms who legally owns a property, how it is held, and whether any restrictions or charges apply. It is a core document required for selling, remortgaging, resolving disputes, or verifying property details.
Property Swift makes the process simple, removing delays, paperwork, and unnecessary legal appointments.
What Is an Official Copy of the Title Register?
The Title Register is the authoritative legal record of a registered property in England and Wales. It shows:
- The registered owner(s)
- Whether the property is freehold or leasehold
- Rights, restrictions, and covenants affecting the land
- Any registered charges, such as mortgages
An official copy holds the same legal status as the original register and is accepted by lenders, solicitors, courts, and estate agents.
When Do You Need an Official Copy of the Title Register?
You may need this document if you are:
- Selling or buying a property
- Remortgaging or releasing equity
- Confirming legal ownership details
- Checking restrictions or charges on a title
- Resolving ownership or boundary-related queries
- Updating or correcting Land Registry records
Many property issues start with uncertainty. This document removes doubt.
What Information Does the Title Register Contain?
Each official copy includes three legally significant sections:
Property Register
Describes the property and confirms whether it is freehold or leasehold.
Proprietorship Register
Shows the legal owner(s), title class, and any ownership restrictions.
Charges Register
Lists mortgages, financial charges, and legal obligations affecting the property.
Together, these sections provide a complete snapshot of the property’s legal status.
