鈥淔or over 150 years Her Majesty鈥檚 Land Registry has underpinned our society and economy by registering ownership, interests, mortgages and other secured loans against land and property in England and Wales. But our future won鈥檛 just be about doing what we鈥檝e always done. Our ambition is to lead the world in how we do it, and that鈥檚 why we鈥檙e committed to becoming the world鈥檚 leading land registry for speed, simplicity and an open approach to data.
鈥淲e鈥檝e also set ourselves the goal of achieving comprehensive registration by 2030. This will result in a more definitive record of property ownership, which will make buying and selling houses simpler, faster and cheaper. It will also support economic and housing growth right across the country.
鈥淚n our business strategy, we set out how we鈥檒l transform over the next five years. We鈥檒l become brilliant at the basics, and increase our focus on our customers鈥� needs.
鈥淥ur Digital Street project is exploring how land registration might work in 2030. This ground-breaking research will put us at the forefront of land registration innovation, both at home and abroad. By publishing our data we鈥檒l maximise its use, benefiting wider society, and driving innovation in the digital economy.
鈥淥ur most important asset, our colleagues, will be key to delivering this ambition. With their expertise alongside a robust financial plan, we鈥檒l deliver better value for money, and be able to respond to fluctuations in the market, ensuring we remain strong as we move towards 2030.
鈥淲e have a proud heritage in history. Through our transformation plans, we鈥檒l build on this and we will become the world鈥檚 leading land registry for speed, simplicity and an open approach to data.鈥�
