The land charges register contains relevant information about every property in the Middlesbrough Council area. For each property or piece of land, the register includes information about:
- planning
- highways
- listed buildings
- conservation areas
- Tree Preservation Orders
- improvement grants
- enforcement notices
- financial charges
We are required by law to keep a land charges register.
A search of the land charges register is carried out when a property or land is sold, mortgaged, used as security, leased, or rented. The search provides interested parties with relevant information which may have implications to the prospective purchaser.
You can get more information about what is needed when buying a home or selling a home on GOV.UK.
