What
information do we hold?
REGISTER
OF SASINES
A register (dating back to 1617) of transactions (deeds of sale,
mortgages, etc) relating to land. The Minute Book contains details
of individual Search Sheet showing historic transactions affecting
that property. The Minute Book contains details of individual
transactions in chronological order and shows the parties, description
of property, date of registration and price. A file of pending
applications can be viewed in the Presentment Book.
The Sasine register has been computerised since 1993 with all
the search sheets imaged back to 1905 - over 9 million pages
in total. Now in digital form, data is accessible by searching
against name, property address, minute detail and with an added
facility of displaying map levels to identify county areas significantly
enhancing the information search process.

LAND
REGISTER
A system of registration established by the Land Registration
(Scotland) Act 1979 to replace the Sasine Register. The Land
Register is now in operation throughout the whole of Scotland.
This is a map-based system resulting in the creation of a Title
Sheet guaranteed by the state. The user has the facility of
viewing any one of the four Title Sheet sections, and can also
view the Title Plan for any particular property. Various facilities
exist for county selection by text drop-down list or zooming
into the plan map to identify detail of the property and immediate
surrounding area.

LAND
REGISTER PROPERTY PRICES
The Registers Direct Land Register Property Prices facility
provides up-to-date detail on the prices paid for property.
REGISTER
OF INHIBITIONS & ADJUDICATIONS
This register provides a facility for the registration of a
variety of court orders and other legal documents which affect
persons (individual, firm, company) and their ability to grant
deeds relating to land and for that reason is referred to as
the Personal Register. Court orders may arise from bankruptcy
proceedings or actions by creditors to protect their interests
in land belonging to their debtors. A bank, finance house, mortgage
company, or credit-checking organisations may be typical users
of this information. The user has the ability to search in singular
or batch mode for inhibitions or adjudications with full minute
detail being supplied after search.
REGISTER
OF DEEDS / BOOKS OF COUNCIL AND SESSION
This may be described as a safe deposit for important
legal documents that may be lost if left in private hands. Every
deed is registered for preservation and retained and an official
copy known as an Extract is issued which is equivalent to the
deed itself. Within a few days of registration, the original
deed is passed to the Scottish Record Office (SRO) and cannot
be removed except by Court order. Typical information returned
from a deeds search would be the number, type, party details,
number of pages and presentment information and lease details
if applicable.
REGISTER
OF JUDGMENTS
This relates to judgments passed in England, Ireland and the
European Union (and other reciprocating countries) against an
individual resident in Scotland. Details extracted from the
register are: judgment number, defendant/pursuer information,
country of origin and the date that the judgment was presented.
COPY
DEEDS
A host of documents can be ordered online: copy deeds (both
evidential and informal), application forms and colour copies.
The user can also submit complaints and feedback forms online.
REGISTER
OF COMMUNITY INTERESTS IN LAND
This new register came into force on 14 June 2004. The Land
Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 Part 2 required that the Keeper should
set up and keep a Register of Community Bodies Interests in
Land.
