HM Land Registry (HMLR) has launched a new training programme focused on new build applications for conveyancers, developers and other property professionals who regularly work on new build registrations.
The first of the sessions will be hosted on Tuesday 7 July, from 10am to 11.30am. HMLR says the session has been developed in response to customer feedback and focuses on areas where more practical guidance and support with new build applications is needed.
The session will cover four areas that conveyancers say commonly create difficulties in new build applications. It will include worked examples on multi-title lodgement, restrictions, plans issues, e-signatures (not including qualified e-signatures). A live Q&A will give attendees the opportunity to put questions to HMLR casework experts who specialise in new build applications.
HMLR customer training lead Roger Holdom said: “New build applications can be complex, particularly where they involve multiple titles, restrictions, plans or the use of e-signatures.
“We developed New Builds in Depth after customers told us they wanted more practical guidance, worked examples and time to ask detailed questions about the issues they see most often. The session brings together our new build casework expertise and customer training support, so conveyancers and other property professionals can leave with clearer steps they can apply when preparing and lodging applications.”
The workshop is part of HMLR’s wider programme of free customer training and support, designed to help professional customers get applications right first time. Those who already receive HMLR customer training updates should look out for their invitation. Property professionals who do not currently receive updates can register for the workshop using this link: New Builds in Depth workshop.
