When will I receive the title deeds and proof of ownership?
Today, most properties are registered land — ownership is recorded digitally at HM Land Registry, not with traditional paper deeds. After completion, your solicitor will register your name as owner.
What you’ll receive
- Title Register (showing you as legal owner)
- Title Plan (boundary map)
- TR1 Transfer Deed
How long it takes
- Registered properties: 4–8 weeks
- Unregistered land: Up to 6+ months
- New builds or part transfers may take longer
Summary
You won’t receive paper “title deeds,” but once registration is complete, you’ll get official confirmation from Land Registry. Versus Law handles the entire process and notifies you when it’s done.
