The Registers of Scotland

Scottish Property (Sasine) Registers have been kept since 1617 with many changes having been made from parochial systems through to more general registers.

Minute books were introduced in 1672 and an abridgment system in 1821. In 1876 the Search Sheets were created detailing, in chronological order, deeds and transactions affecting properties.

All registers are still available for inspection and, in most instances, copies of deeds can be obtained.

These Registers have now been superseded by the Land Register for Scotland for current information.

We can supply current and / or historic title information on all properties situated in Scotland whether it be a humble croft or a rambling estate along with copies of deeds if required.
