About NLIS

NLIS provides electronic access to all the official sources of land and property information, across the whole of England and Wales, via a number of competing channels. The organisation is at the forefront of the e-conveyancing revolution, which is streamlining and improving the home-buying process.

NLIS users can access electronic information from a range of data providers including, 410 Local Authorities, national parks, Land Registry, the Coal Authority, the Environment Agency and water companies.

Rather than conveyancers having to wait for hard copies of search information using NLIS they  are able to not only benefit from a faster and more efficient service but are also safe in the knowledge that the searches are authoritative and fully comprehensive.

Since it went live in early 2001, NLIS has processed over 18 million searches in support of the home-buying public.
