Why is the data a few months old compared to todays date?
Data gets entered into the Land Registries as soon as it’s lodged with them by solicitors conveyancing a sale. They have up to 24 months to register a completed sale with the appropriate Land Registry, but typically their data arrives between 3 and 18 months after a sale. For that reason, we display data with a 3 month “lag” as a minimum, and data up to 24 months ago is still subject to change each month – although in decreasing instances over time. Sales more than two years ago will have been registered, and as such data beyond this point is considered final and should not change.
