FOI Release: Property Data

FOI reference: CW-2025-148
Date received: 24 February 2025
Date clarified: 4 March 2025
Date responded: 18 March 2025

Information requested:

A full list of entries available in your database of properties on the land register for Scotland. This would contain the full list of details available per-property, as would be displayed on the 'Property Summary' page on your website.

Response:

The information you have requested is exempt under section 25(1) of FOISA as we do not have to give you information which is already reasonably accessible to you. The information is available through our RoS Sales Data Reports. The All Sales data report includes data extracted from the land register for all property transactions in Scotland, including price, date of registration and land classification. You can view a sample here.

Please note that this service is subject to a fee, and the data released under licence. Guidance from the Scottish Information Commissioner (OSIC) confirms:

* Information may be reasonably obtainable even if a requester needs to pay for it

* Information which is also commercially available is generally covered by this exemption

* The market price for information which is commercially available is generally taken as “reasonable”
