The local post office has changed our address from one village to another, now the title deed does not match. If we want to sell the property do we have to get this amended on the title and if so how do we do this.

Kira-Colleen - it's the local authority that manages postal addresses and yes, you would need to ensure that the register is up to date as a result. 

You can complete form AP1 to change the property description.

You need to send us evidence from the street naming and numbering department of the Local Authority. Royal Mail documents are not acceptable as their delivery point address description can differ from the Local Authority registered address.

When submitting your application, please remember to tell us the address you would like a copy of the updated register to be posted to upon completion, as this can often be different from the property itself.

There is no fee for this application

Where to send your application

HM Land Registry address for applications.
