Hi, Is there any way I can access TA6 from the sale of my neighbour house. Are these forms recorded and stored anywhere? I need to find out what the previous owner said about boundary between our house and their as the new owner thinks he has right to our wall and he thinks it’s a party wall rather than a wall on our land. We are in a process of applying for Exact Boundary Line and he is not agreeing with our surveyor and does not want to sign the form. So I just wanted to see if he thinks this way because perhaps the previous owner misled him?? Thank you.
No. There is no right to see such documentation and it is not stored anywhere that a third party could
access it. It might be stored on a solicitor’s file, depending on how long ago the transaction was or the
neighbour might have a copy.
Sometimes, particularly if legal proceedings are likely or extant, it is possible to apply to the Court for an
order that documentation relevant to the dispute is disclosed. However, this is a fairly strong step to
take. Asking for a copy is always the first thing to do anyway.
In any event, what a property owner/seller says about a particular boundary is not necessarily going to
have any probative value when compared to a surveyors report. Neither a court nor tribunal would
have any real regard for the understanding of a particular party. The courts and tribunals operate on
evidence. That evidence need to be supplied by qualified individuals.
