Land Registry Compliant Lease Plans in Essex
A lease plan is a diagram or drawing depicting parts of a property included in a lease, such as any land, garden, or outbuildings. To ensure compliance with the legal regulations, the lease plan should be made according to the Land Registry guidelines. Therefore, it should be produced by a professional familiar with all the guidelines to guarantee its accuracy and compliance.
On 13th October 2003, new legislation was enforced, according to which all new leases granted for more than 7 years and existing leases with 7 years remaining must be registered with the Land Registry. This calls for producing and submitting Land Registry Compliant Plans to fulfil the application process requirements.

Land Registry Guidelines
The following are the Land Registry guidelines which are crucial to follow to ensure the legal compliance of the lease plans:
- The plan must be drawn to scale: the scale for urban properties should be from 1:1250 to 1:500 and 1:2500 for farms and other rural properties.
- It must incorporate enough details, including junctions, landmarks, and roads, to provide a precise location of the property for its easy identification on an Ordnance Survey map.
- There must be a bar scale using metric measurements.
- It must have a North point, clearly showing its orientation.
- Concerning flats and maisonettes, it must depict the property’s location relevant to the building’s external footprint.
- For multiple floors of a leased property, the plan must show the lease extent on each floor, and separate plans can also be made if required.
- Using a large scale, it must show the intricate boundaries in greater detail, such as the building’s internal divisions.
- It must be in accordance with the verbal descriptions present in the deed.
Our professional architects ensure the fulfilment of all these requirements to make the plans precise and accurate.
