Search provider Search Acumen has integrated new Land Registry data into its Title Intelligence search tool.

The Land Registry’s new National Spatial Dataset allows conveyancers to visualise and validate property locations by displaying a boundary map on-screen using a live data link.

Andrew Lloyd, managing director of Search Acumen, said: “It used to be the case that essential data for due diligence on property transactions could be hard to reach, and required conveyancers to jump through hoops that delayed the order process or exposed them to the risk of user error.

“Our Title Intelligence service laid the ground for a new approach, and we’ve taken it a step further using newly available National Polygon Dataset from Land Registry to create an ordering process that is much simpler for conveyancers to manage.

“It’s a whole different way of working that takes away the cumbersome legwork often required behind the scenes, so conveyancers have more time to focus on their client workload.”
