Restriction (Land Registry)

1 min read

An entry on a property's Land Registry title that limits dealings with it — for example, requiring a particular person's consent before the property is sold or transferred. Orders can require parties to cooperate in removing restrictions to allow a sale or transfer.

In Plain English

A note on a property's official record that stops it from being sold or changed without someone else's permission. It is a way to protect your interest in a house while the court case is ongoing.
