Title

This means the legal ownership of property or goods. As far as the ownership of land is concerned all titles to residential property are now recorded and guaranteed by the Land Registry (q.v.). The plans and title records are in the public domain and will be used by the seller’s solicitor to form the basis of the sale contract. Once the transaction is completed your name will be registered with the LR as legal owner of the property.
