Searching the registers
You can search the land register for free to:
- find property prices
- view property boundaries on a map
- check if a property is on the land register
If you can't find your property on the land register, you can ask us to conduct a search.
We charge an initial fee of £30 plus VAT per request to include one plain copy deed, or nil return.
This initial fee applies only where there is a full postal address, including postcode.
Should you wish to order any additional copy deeds identified, you can order these at a cost of £25 plus VAT each.
We’ll let you know the cost of all identified deeds before we complete your search.
Non-addressable search information
You can use our land title investigation service to request a search for areas of non-addressable land or property.
Investigations are charged at £60 + VAT per area outlined.
If there are more than three titles within the area submitted, RoS charge an additional fee of £54 + vat per hour, we will get in touch before proceeding if this is the case.
