It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Guiseley concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Who are the managing agents? Is the freehold owned collectively by the tenants? You should be aware if it is no more than eighty years it will impact the value of the property.
