You asked
I am currently conducting research on ltd companies that purchase properties as the result of a death and I wanted to understand if there was a way to produce this data.
I can see a general list of businesses who have made purchases by looking at the land registry record "UK companies that own property in England and Wales".
We said
Thank you for your request for detail on the companies that own property in England and Wales, specifically as the result of a death.
Unfortunately, our business surveys do not collect this level of detail, and we do not hold this information.
We would advise that you contact HM Land Registry to understand whether this information would be available directly from them. They can be contacted at foi@landregistry.gov.uk.
