Hoowla is integrated with the Land Registry to allow automatic filling of a property’s title and tenure when a quote is generated. If you have linked your Hoowla account with your Land Registry account Hoowla will use the property address to add the title and tenure to the quote and case details.
If you have not linked your Land Registry see this guide on how to connect it: How to Connect Your Land Registry Account to Hoowla.
If your Land Registry account is not linked, or Hoowla was not automatically able to pull in the information, perhaps because the property details were not entered correctly, it is possible to manually add the information.
