How can I get a certificate of compliance?

1 min read

You might need a certificate of compliance when you sell your home. If the Land Registry has a restriction on the property title, this is required to confirm that you've complied with the terms of your lease or freehold transfer.

We may also require you to complete a deed of covenant before we can issue a certificate of compliance. This confirms that you accept the terms of the lease or freehold transfer.

If you need either a certificate of compliance or a deed of covenant, your solicitor will usually ask us for it. If you want a copy yourself, email leasehold@a2dominion.co.uk.

You can find the fee to arrange a certificate of compliance or deed of covenant on our fees page.

What must I do if I'm selling my home?
If you are a shared owner, you must tell us if you want to sell your shared ownership home. If you own 100% of your home, you need to tell us once you've sold it. You must tell us if you sell your home. Most leases require that you tell us within 1 month of the sale going through. Your solicitor will usually do this as part of the sales process. They'll send us a notice of transfer. It must include the date of the sale and the details of the new owner.
