Land Registry and Cadastre
What is included and what is not promised
The Land Registry and the Cadastre do not always say the same thing about the same property, and the difference shows up exactly when you want to sell, inherit or mortgage. Mortgages paid off years ago are also routinely still registered.
What it includes: registry search and review of the registry and cadastral position; registry cancellation of charges already extinguished; proceedings to correct surface area or boundaries. What it does not include: it does not include registry or notarial fees or the associated taxes, which are the party's cost.
Documents you will need
- Title deed.
- Cadastral reference.
- Certificate that the loan has been repaid, where a mortgage is being cancelled.
Indicative timing
We answer your enquiry within 1 working day and send the written quote within 2 working days.
Once your documents are complete, we prepare the file between 2 and 6 working days.
A registry cancellation usually resolves within weeks; a surface correction can take months and require notice to neighbours.
See the pricing page for how we charge this kind of matter.
How it works

Frequently asked questions
I paid off the mortgage and it is still registered.
Very common. Registry cancellation is separate from repayment and has to be applied for.
The Registry and Cadastre do not match.
There is a procedure to reconcile them. We look at which fits and whether neighbours must be notified.
Do I need a notary?
For some entries, yes. We tell you beforehand, with an approximate cost.
