Lease plans
A qualified surveyor measures the property and prepares lease plans to HM Land Registry requirements, showing the extent of the lease clearly at each floor level, ready for your solicitor to attach to the lease.
When you need it
A lease of more than seven years must be registered at HM Land Registry, and the plan attached to it must let the registry identify the property on the Ordnance Survey map. A plan that does not meet the registry’s requirements may be rejected, which delays registration.
A lease extension often reuses the plan from the original lease. If that plan is missing, inaccurate or does not meet current requirements, your solicitor may ask for a new one.

Questions
What does HM Land Registry need on a lease plan?
A stated metric scale with a bar scale, a north point, enough surrounding detail to locate the property on the Ordnance Survey map, and the extent shown clearly at each floor level. Plans marked “for identification only” may be rejected.
Can my estate agent’s floor plan be used?
Usually not. Marketing floor plans do not normally show a stated scale, a north point or the extent in a form HM Land Registry accepts.
Who signs the plan?
HM Land Registry guidance says the landlord must sign the plan to the lease. Your solicitor arranges this.
