Protect Your Investment: The Essential Guide to Land Registry Property Alert
Property fraud is a serious and growing risk. This free service is a non-negotiable security layer for every landlord.
Understanding the Threat
Property fraud involves criminals impersonating the legal owner, often using forged documents, to try and mortgage or sell a property without the true owner's knowledge.
Vulnerability of Rental Properties
As a landlord, your properties can be targets because they may be:
- • Rented out, meaning the owner isn't routinely checking mail at the address.
- • Vacant, where mail and activity go unnoticed.
- • Owned by overseas landlords.
How Property Alert Protects You
HM Land Registry’s Property Alert is a free monitoring service that alerts you instantly to suspicious activity on your registered property titles, giving you the critical time needed to act.
Immediate Notification of Changes
The service sends you an email alert if the Land Registry receives any application to change the register of the property you are monitoring. This could include:
- An application to sell the property.
- An application to grant a new mortgage.
- A change of ownership details.
Receiving this alert quickly allows you to contact the Land Registry immediately to halt any fraudulent application.
