Every form you are likely to need, explained before you download it.
The forms themselves are free from HM Land Registry. What is harder is knowing which one your situation calls for, and what has to go with it.
Transfers and ownership
The deeds that move ownership, and the applications that register them.
Transfer of whole of registered title
Transfers the whole of a registered property to new owners: sales, gifts, transfers of equity and divorce settlements.
Transfer of part of registered title
Transfers part of a title (a garden plot, strip of land or building plot), creating a new registered title.
Assent of whole of registered title
Transfers a property out of a deceased person's estate into the name of the beneficiary entitled to it.

Would rather we handled it?
HM Land Registry rejects a significant share of applications lodged by unrepresented applicants. We prepare the form, assemble the evidence, lodge it and answer any requisition, on a fixed fee agreed before we start.
