What is a Land Registry Compliant Title Plan?

A Title Plan is an official registered document, which provides an outline of a property’s boundaries and relevant features (e.g. rights of way).

The Land Registry uses Title Plans to record land and property ownership, resolve disputes, and grant planning permission.

The plan must meet specific requirements, including the use of a suitable scale, referencing an Ordnance Survey mapping, displaying a clear red line around the ownership, etc…

We can provide you with a Land Registry Compliant Title Plan to accompany your Title Plan submission.

Myth: Older homes are always more problematic than new ones.

We hear this one a lot, but the truth is that the age of a property doesn't automatically tell you how many issues it might have.

Every property has its own risks. Older homes may have ageing materials, while new homes can suffer from workmanship defects and unfinished installations.

Whether you're buying a character cottage that's been standing for 100 years or a brand-new home fresh from the developer, getting professional advice can give you peace of mind.

While a new build may not need a full Level 2 or Level 3 survey, a snagging survey can be a great way to identify any issues before you move in.

At the end of the day, it's about understanding its condition before you commit.

Would you buy a car 🚗 without driving it first?

Then, why risk buying a home without a survey?

Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make.

Skipping a survey might save you some money upfront, but it could leave you with unexpected - and costly - repairs later on.

A survey reveals the true condition of your property, helping you spot potential issues before the purchase is completed.

Think of it as your safety net. A survey could help you renegotiate the price or even decide to walk away, making sure you stay within budget.

What happens at a Shared Ownership Valuation?

The Shared Ownership Valuation involves a RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) Registered Valuer visiting your property and inspecting it inside and outside to establish condition, age, size and any other material facts that may impact value.

Depending on the size of the property visits generally last 30-40 minutes. We then return to the office to research comparable properties in the area.

Once the inspection is complete, you will receive the report from your Valuer by email.

Note that the RICS Shared Ownership Valuation report has a validity period of 3 months, so it is important to plan the process carefully to ensure that the paperwork is complete before the valuation report expires. The valuation can be extended once, via a desktop valuation at a reduced fee, giving you a further 3 months but if a further valuation is required, we will need to re-visit the property.

Ever wonder why surveyors check for moss and algae on walls, paths and driveways?

Surveyors routinely look for moss, algae staining, and persistently damp areas because they can indicate poor drainage, overflowing gutters, blocked gullies, or water regularly collecting against the house.

While most people walk past them, we see them as a potential warning sign. Water that lingers after the rain has gone can suggest drainage issues around the property.

And if water isn't draining away properly outside, damp problems can often start to appear inside.

As part of our surveys, we inspect the external part of your home, including roof, walls, gutters, windows, gardens, etc.

Help To Buy Valuations are needed when selling or remortgaging a home bought using the Help To Buy scheme.

Valuations must be conducted by an independent RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) Registered Valuer, to determine the market value of your property, before you can complete the sale/remortgage process.

Would you make one of the biggest financial decisions of your life in under 20 minutes?

According to Zoopla, UK homebuyers spend less than 20 minutes viewing a property before putting in an offer, with some rooms inspected for less than a minute.

First impressions matter of course, but unless you have an infinite budget, it's worth taking your time before making a decision. A quick viewing can mean overlooking costly issues that aren't immediately obvious.

Don’t be afraid to ask plenty of questions, view the property at different times of day, and consider commissioning a survey before you commit.

Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions you'll ever make. Make sure you've seen enough to feel confident before taking the next step.
