How can I access the original plans for my property?

Question

Hi, what can I do to access the original plans for my property? Do I have a right to see these? What sort of professional would be best to contact to interpret the plans for me or are they relatively straightforward for a novice to understand? Thank you.

Hi, 

This depends on when your house was built, if it's a new build you could probably find out who the architects for your house were online and then contact them. 

If your property is not a new build, you may be able to find them online by searching up the address however this is unlikely. If you aren't able to find them online then unfortunately you probably won't be able to find them anywhere else and will need someone to come and measure up your property. 

This is something we can do. 

Hope this helps.

You can access / Obtain official copies of Title Registers and Title Plans (often called Title Deeds, Property Deeds, House Deeds or Land Deeds) for any land or property online now. Official copies of Title Registers and Title Plans are the 2 main title documents and provide official evidence of ownership for land and property owners. They reveal the name and address of the registered owners and contain full details of boundaries, maintenance responsibilities, covenants, easements, mortgages, charges, historical rights, the price paid, tenure, leases and much more. This is very inexpensive online. In addition, the plans should be easy enough for a novice to read however again online an architect can be sourced online without too much expense.
