Is it possible to know what kind of application has been lodged?

Hello<br> <br> Thanks for this great service, how brilliant to see how responsive you are online.<br> <br> My question is:<br> <br> Am I able to find out what kind of application has been lodged on a Title?&#160; I signed up for a property alert on the Head Lease title on a block of flats and recently received an alert that an Application has been lodged by a law firm.<br> <br> I'd like to understand if this means the block is for sale or if not, what other types of applications might be lodged.&#160; I'm not sure if this is possible to know.&#160; As far as I understand it, it is a fairly typical arrangement with a freeholder, head lease and multiple underleases.<br> <br> Many thanks in advance.

Hence the limited information provided as the hope is you'd know if the applicant/application was legitimate as you were selling or remortgaging.&#160;

Thank you so much that is extremely helpful.
