About UK Land Registry Search

Making corporate land ownership data accessible to everyone

Our Mission

We believe that information about land ownership should be accessible to everyone. Our tool democratizes access to UK corporate property ownership data, making it easy for professionals, researchers, journalists, and the public to understand who owns land and property across England and Wales.

By providing a fast, intuitive interface to search official government data, we're helping increase transparency in the UK property market and supporting informed decision-making for businesses, legal professionals, and citizens.

Understanding CCOD Data

CCOD (Commercial and Corporate Ownership Data) is an official dataset published by HM Land Registry under the Open Government Licence. It contains comprehensive information about freehold and leasehold properties in England and Wales owned by:

  • UK companies registered with Companies House
  • Overseas companies that own property in the UK
  • Corporate bodies and other legal entities

The dataset includes over 3.8 million property records and is updated monthly by HM Land Registry. Each record contains property addresses, title numbers, tenure information, price paid (where available), and details about the corporate proprietor.

Official Data Sources

HM Land Registry

The official government body responsible for registering land and property ownership in England and Wales. We use their official CCOD dataset, which is published under the Open Government Licence and updated monthly.

Companies House

For director searches, we query the Companies House API to find company appointments and officer information. This allows us to trace property ownership through individual directors and their business interests.

Our data comes directly from official government sources and is as accurate as the source datasets. However, please note:

  • Coverage is limited to registered properties in England and Wales. Unregistered land is not included.
  • Data is updated monthly based on HM Land Registry releases. Very recent transactions may not appear yet.
  • Only corporate ownership is included. Properties owned by individuals are not in the CCOD dataset.
  • Scotland and Northern Ireland have separate registry systems and are not covered.
