Current Title Register and Historical Sasine Registers (Scotland)

The current Title Register records who owns a property, the form of ownership, and any covenants, easements and restrictions affecting the owner’s rights. Whereas the ancient Sasine Registers may record transactions that predate the modern system. A comprehensive search of both therefore yields the most reliable results.

Sasine Registers

There are three different Sasine Registers that are still accessible today. These are:

  • Pre-1959 records going back to 1617 in some instances
  • The Sasine Register covering the period 1959 to 1991
  • The Register covering the remainder of the Sasine period

We search all three Sasine Registers on your behalf, and provide any documents we find pertaining to your inquiry. However, that is not the end of our service. We also search the current Title Register and Burdens, in order to provide the most complete data available.

Title Register

The Title Register is first in a set of three documents detailing the current status of the subject property of interest to you. It contains essential information regarding property description, tenure of ownership, names and addresses of owners, and most recent purchase price paid.

But you could also discover details of any mortgage over it, as well as an overview of any other burdens, charges, covenants, rights, cautions, notices and restrictions.

Title Plan

The Title Plan follows on from the Title Register by providing a graphic overview of how the property is situated. It should contain the outline of the property marked in red, and surrounding properties particularly expansive ones. This is invaluable if you plan a site visit, but there are no walls or fences.

However, the value does not stop there. A Title Plan should also contain a detailed mark-up in contrasting colours, illustrating any restrictions you need to know. You’ll find out whether there are any rights of way, rights of access, watercourses, or sections of land affected by rights and covenants that could affect your plans.

Burdens

Burdens are legal duties to do, or not do something to, in, or on a property. This could for example be a requirement to pay money such as a levy, or a council servitude running through it. This information is typically detailed. In fact you might not need to obtain a copy of the Deed concerned.
