Removal of restrictive covenant

Hello,<br> My property, along with others (but not all properties) on our small estate, is subject to an age restriction covenant imposed by Council planners. If I get an agreement from the planning authority to remove this restriction, how do I register this on the Land Registry deeds? Many thanks.<br> Margaret Potten

Hello Margaret - if it a restrictive covenant removal then you would use form AP1 plus supporting evidence<br> If it's a restriction removal then it's form RX3 or RX4 depending on who is applying - <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/notices-restrictions-and-the-protection-of-third-party-interests-in-the-register">Notices, restrictions and protection of third-party interests (PG19) - GOV.UK</a><br> <br> Land registration is complex, designed to protect legal and financial interests in property. There can be significant consequences for any error. Please consider seeking legal representation. Before making an application without legal representation, it is important to <a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/making-an-application-without-legal-representation">consider the benefits of using a conveyancer.</a>

're above posting, finally have signed and sealed Deed removing the restrictive covenants from our property. Will use form AP1 as advised. Two questions: Is there a fee for this, and Not using a conveyancer, so will we need to complete evidence of identity forms? Many thanks, Margaret Potten
