hello there in this video I'm just going to take a look at websites that if
[5]
you're considering or taking about buying property you should consider
[9]
visiting this website it's the website of the property registration authority
[13]
of Ireland and the web address is P or AI dot ie okay PR AI that is the
[21]
property registration Authority website when you come to the website you scroll
[26]
down to LAN directly and click on that then you're gonna have the choice of
[33]
proceeding as a guest or logging in using your account details if you don't
[37]
have an account obviously you're gonna have to proceed as a guest but that's
[40]
fine we'll do that even though I have an account I'm gonna go ahead as a guest
[44]
and I'll show you what we can do terms conditions and notices you just have to
[50]
accept this many people don't accept this because once they see any sort of a
[53]
legal type of a document at all on a website or wherever they cannot show you
[58]
away what it's perfectly fine you just click accept now you see the website
[64]
opens up then on it's basically a map of Ireland and you can scroll in or
[70]
maximize or minimize or maximize the view okay so if we just scrape scrape
[78]
cross towards where I am now at the moment in Enfield economies you can
[86]
simply go in - you can go into any particular town here's and feel here
[94]
slap-bang in the middle and we can keep going in and eventually then you're
[103]
going to actually see the folios for the particular area that you're looking at
[109]
so if we just take an e folio for example this one here
[117]
you'll see exactly what's involved with this this is the folio reference here on
[123]
the right hand side 43 600 F it's a freehold property that one property
[130]
owner is 0.16 of a hectare and the one plan on the folio and the plan basically
[135]
is the map this is the map so if you're buying a house in an estate or if you're
[139]
buying a house or indeed a property anywhere and you want to just check the
[143]
boundaries etc what has been registered and so on this is a good way to do it
[147]
because you can find on e its property practically any property in Ireland and
[152]
as I say you can go to the map and do so now when you when I say a folio folio
[160]
basically is the legal document from the property registration authority which
[164]
sets out some essential information it contains this information plus attached
[170]
to the back of it is the official Land Registry map so the Land Registry map is
[175]
this red area here here's the map for example for this folio and when you open
[181]
the folio then what you have is the number of the folio and you just drag
[188]
this across here so you know the number of the folio county kildare this one is
[193]
this is just an example just gonna be a number here here you can have a
[196]
description of the property and it's gonna refer to a plan and the plan will
[200]
be that file plan that I've just showed you the colored red the red plan that's
[205]
the area and this will refer to it sometimes to be more than one clan there
[208]
could be maybe two maps or three maps attached to a particular folio that will
[212]
be stated here part two of the folio then shows property that's been
[217]
transferred out of us in other words maybe a site sold off for a section sold
[222]
off part two also sets out that the type of title that's on offer here is
[230]
absolute and it's not limited ownership it's absolute ownership then the owners
[236]
are listed here in this case there's four or five owners and finally and one
[240]
very very important part of the folio is poetry which shows the burdens are
[246]
notices of burdens burdens are mortgages judgment mortgages
[250]
rights-of-way charges etc etc you see on this particular property there's a
[254]
charge registered for Ulster bike so that's what's on the folio now it just
[259]
closed that down there and I want to show you how you can search over here on
[265]
the right hand side let's see I can go back there to a menu and we can actually
[268]
search them as well for a folio by for example address so if I select County
[275]
for example needs and then select the town will go from Enfield and ask it to
[285]
show me the addresses then all of the addresses of all of the registered
[288]
properties in the Enfield are listed here so if this particular property
[292]
would New Castle would rise and field is the one I'm interested in I simply click
[297]
on that and then the map is brought up here and then I can go back and I can I
[303]
can see that the folio is this number here I can then go back and I can search
[308]
for the actual folio itself to see what I put in the numbers here M hich the
[316]
number and so on and so forth that then will allow me to add we'll just add some
[321]
Foley over here we go for wound and if we go for that I can add it to basket
[330]
that's a different for you all together lesson Ashbourne or someplace I can view
[335]
this folio for five euros so I can add it to my basket viewers download it to
[340]
my computer have a good look at it and it will tell me then whether there's any
[344]
rights of way or any mortgages judgment mortgages etcetera etc just like this
[349]

[355]
