The National Land Information Service (NLIS) is a government approved and regulated, electronic land and property searches portal, the only one of its kind in the property searches market. NLIS provides its services by way of a ‘hub’ and ‘channel’ model, operating as a convenient single point of electronic access to a variety of offical sources of land and property information. In doing so it provides huge benefits to the user, data providers and ultimately the consumer.
NLIS connects users directly to land and property information held by local authorities, central government and other organisations that provide official sources of land and property data. It offers the highest standards of electronic property search accessibility available on the market today. All searches ordered through NLIS are classified as ‘official’ searches because they are sourced directly from and interpreted by the local authority and other official data providers and therefore, all statutory indemnities remain preserved and transferred to end customers. Over 27 million NLIS searches have been processed since its launch in 2001. Regulated by Land Data, it is the safest, most secure data hub in the land and property search information market.
