With the world's largest property database, today's Land Registry underpins the economy by guaranteeing ownership of many billions of pounds worth of property. As the government department responsible for maintaining the Land Register for England and Wales, its mission is to provide the world's best service for guaranteeing ownership of land and facilitating property transactions. The property market in England and Wales is a very active one, and approximately £1million worth of property is processed every minute.

Land Registry offers a media service between the hours of 0900-1700 Monday to Friday. We publish our press notices here on the day of issue to keep you up-to-date with developments.
