My parents cant seem to find their Northolt property on the HM Land Registry online search facility. They have a vague recollection back in the 60’s when they purchased the property there were complications regarding the post code not being identified on some systems.
Almost all premises in Northolt should be revealed. Have you attempted a search with just the postcode. Ordinarily it should disclose all the properties within the postcode. Where recorded it will show up with a title number. If they bought back in the 70’s it's conceivable it may be unregistered. The address might still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to track down the original title deeds which could be with your parent’s mortgage company.
