What is HM Land Registry?

Within England and Wales, HM Land Registry’s responsibilities are to provide:

a reliable record of information about ownership of and interests affecting both land and property.
owners with a land title, guaranteed by the government.
a title plan that indicates general boundaries.

You MUST register all land or property with HM Land Registry if you’ve:

bought it
been given it
inherited it
received it in exchange for other property or land
mortgaged the property.

However, please be aware, once you’re registered, the HM Land Registry publishes information online about registered properties, including:

name(s) of owner(s)
the price paid for the property
a plan of the property’s boundaries.

Please Note: You cannot opt out of your property information being published.

You do not usually need to register leasehold land or property if there are 7 years or less on the lease at the time you take ownership.
You must register your land with the Rural Land Register as well as HM Land Registry if you own agricultural land.
Your property might not be registered if you owned it before 1990 and have not mortgaged it since. You can search online to check if your property is registered.
You must tell HM Land Registry if you transfer ownership of your registered property to someone else.
