Buying and Selling Leases
Bulk applications affecting one or more Land Registry Office
What Documents to lodge with the SSA / LSA
The application should contain
- the application form (eg. AP1 or FR1). This must provide clear instruction on who to return the documents to
- the original document(s) (eg. TR4, TR5 and Mortgage / Charge)
- certified copy(ies) of the original document(s)
- if the application includes a transfer that is expressed to be subject to Leases, or other incumbrances that are not referred to on the register, the original or certified copies of those documents (except where the documents are only referred to in an indemnity covenant)
- any necessary evidence of change of name
- evidence of execution of the deed - for example Power of Attorney or Board Resolution, where the deed has not been executed using one of the acceptable methods
- the appropriate fee
- completed form RX1 where a restriction is required that is either non-standard or is not applied for in an approved document (rule 92 Land Registration Rules 2003)
- completed form(s) DI where required and a certified copy of any Lease if revealed in panel 4 of the form.
- the Land Transaction Return certificate, if appropriate
- the application should be marked for the attention of the customer service manager or the contact name (which will be provided by Head Office for Large Scale Applications) at the relevant Land Registry office
NB1: Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers for applicants will appreciate that these types of applications can be very complex matters to register. It is important to do everything possible to ensure that applications are complete in every details and are free of obvious clerical errors.
NB2: Where the Large Scale Application is set up by the Commercial Arrangements Section, and specific instructions issued by them, Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers will be informed as to what supporting documentation is to be lodged with the application as certain aspects will be covered in the initial stages prior to lodgement. This will reduce the amount of information that will be required by the processing office and reduce the incidence of additional requisitions.
For its part, Land Registry will do everything possible to complete these applications with the minimum of delay. However, Land Registry may return applications on receipt if they are lodged in an unacceptable condition, or if requisitions are not complied with.
Where the application involves transfers of part and/or first registrations, Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers will need to lodge a certified true copy of the transfer document and/or Conveyance for each title as well as the original document. The certified copy must include a coloured copy of the plan of the Property sought to be registered. A certified copy of any Mortgage will also be required. If the Property is leasehold, the original Lease and a full certified copy must also be supplied.
Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers should ensure that where the original deed plans contain colour references that all copy plans are similarly coloured.
The Evidence of title required on first registration
In addition to the documents referred to above, Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers will need to supply documentary evidence of title for each Property subject to first registration.
Land Registry requirements are the same for Small Scale Applications and Large Scale Applications as for a single registration application. This means that Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers should follow the normal conveyancing practice of title investigation for each Property.
A form FR1 and a form DL (in duplicate) should be prepared for each Property and placed with its bundle of deeds. Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers should also supply Land Charge Searches for each Property. To avoid requisitions, those searches should contain a certificate stating entries which affect the Property. If the search results are bulky and apply to a large number of Properties in the application, Conveyancing Solicitors and Property Lawyers should raise the point with Land Registry, as they may be able to make a special arrangement to accept certified extracts for each Property.
Often the documentation or the application form needs a plan. Land Registry needs to be able to accurately identify the Property to be registered where the title deeds either refer to an old plan that cannot be reconciled with the current Ordnance Survey detail or the deeds only refer to the Property by way of an insufficient description.
