Lease plans
Lease plans, HM Land Registry compliant.
A lease plan shows exactly which part of a building a lease covers: the flat, and any garden, parking space or storage that goes with it. HM Land Registry sets standards for these plans, and a plan that falls short can hold up a new lease, a lease extension or a sale. We measure the property and draw the plan to the guidelines in HM Land Registry’s Practice Guide 40, ready for your solicitor. For freeholders, leaseholders and solicitors across Greater London.

FAQs
Lease plan questions.
When do I need a lease plan?
When a new lease of part of a building is granted, when a lease is extended or varied, and often when a flat is sold or a building is split into flats. A lease of more than seven years must be registered with HM Land Registry, and the plan must identify the property on the Ordnance Survey map.
What does HM Land Registry ask for?
A plan drawn accurately to a stated scale, with a north point and a bar scale, showing enough of the surroundings to place the property on the Ordnance Survey map, with the let area clearly edged or coloured and a separate plan for each floor level. We draw every plan to the guidelines in Practice Guide 40.
Do you need to visit the property?
Usually, yes, to measure it. If we already hold accurate drawings, we can prepare the plan from those.
Can you do plans for a whole building of flats?
Yes. Each flat gets its own plan, drawn from one survey of the building.
Who do I send the plan to?
Your solicitor, who attaches it to the lease or the application to HM Land Registry.
Can I use my planning drawings or an estate agent’s floor plan?
Often not as they are. Plans made for another purpose rarely show what HM Land Registry looks for. If we already hold accurate drawings of the property, we prepare the lease plan from those, which is why that starts from £180.
What do I need to send you?
The address, the title number if you have it, and the existing lease or your solicitor’s description of what is let, including any garden, parking space or store.
