Ownership, Tenure & Title Class

You can see the registered proprietors of the property, the tenure (Freehold vs. Leasehold), and the class of title clearly displayed.

If the property is leasehold, you can see the key dates. If the title is anything other than "Absolute" (the best class of title), it is highlighted so you can raise it with your conveyancer.
