Change of address

Hi there, 

We started building a house last year and the address has changed since then as the new road was registered during the build. 

Old address: Plot 2, 87 Hill House Road, BS16 5QW

New address: 2 Page Park View, Bristol, BS16 5FR

Our land registry documents have the old address on with no reference to the new address - do I need to get these documents amended to reflect the new address? 

Many thanks,
Hayley 

Hi Hayley - you don't 'need' to but always best to get such things sorted so that when you come to sell/mortgage the address isn't a problem for the buyer/lender

A registered proprietor or their conveyancer can write to us or 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.

Great, thank you so much
