Distressed property deals. Before they're deals.
Three official registers, read together every week. UK property companies in distress — what they own, who holds the debt, and how early you are.
Built on official public records · Fully legal · Fully verifiable
The best deals never reach the market
By the time a distressed property hits an auction catalogue or an agent's mailout, dozens of buyers are already competing for it.
The information that predicts a forced sale is public — but it's scattered, unreadable at volume, and stale within days.
The sourcers who win are the ones who hear about distress first. Most hear about it last.
Three official registers. One signal.
BRIEFING / WEEKLY / THREE OFFICIAL REGISTERS · ONE RANKED VIEW
The insolvency record
Every UK corporate insolvency event must be announced in the official public record. This is the earliest signal that a property-owning business is in trouble.
The company record
The national companies register carries what each business actually does and which lenders hold security over it — essential context for any distressed-property decision.
The ownership record
HM Land Registry publishes commercial and corporate ownership information for England and Wales — the record of which registered titles a company holds.
One ranked weekly document drawn from official UK public records — published days after filings, and typically weeks before assets reach the open market.
Every source is an official public record — read together, weekly, at national scale.

A glimpse of last week
Genuine records from one week. Names redacted — subscribers see everything.
That last number matters. One company's public filing looked like nothing — no charges, no signals a casual reader would catch. The ownership record told a different story: 58 titles, from city-centre offices to an entire holiday village. Anyone reading filings by hand would have skipped it. Our subscribers saw it ranked #1 that Monday.

One of these was a single landlord's entire portfolio unravelling across four companies in one day. Our subscribers knew that week.
Pick your level of insight
A single sourced deal carries a £3,000–£5,000 fee. Mainstream land-intelligence platforms charge £195+ per month and tell you who owns everything — but not who's in trouble. We tell you who's in trouble, this week, and what they hold.
