All land and property ownership in England and Wales is subject to a system of registration.
However, 20% of all land remains unregistered.
There are significant benefits to registration and our conveyancing team will be happy to investigate whether your own property is registered and, if not, help you make an application to do so.
From a purely practical point of view, registration makes complete sense.
If you remain unregistered, you need to keep your deeds safe to prove your title.
Each and every individual document is important and losing any of them can cause difficulties, delays and additional expense.

Ownership of a property with a long residential lease is a valuable asset.
However its value decreases with each passing year and leases of less than 80 years are harder, if not impossible to sell.
Much depends on the mortgage lender.
Some draw the line at 75 years remaining on the lease, others may be OK with anything over 70 years.
Below 60 years and it's difficult to get a mortgage at all.
The only solution is to extend the lease.
When a lease hits the 80-year mark, five percent of its value can be lost.
