You should have been given a copy of you Title Sheet (previously known as a Land Certificate) or titles when you purchased your flat.
If you have purchased your property very recently you may simply have been sent an email with an electronic copy of your Title Sheet as paper copies of Land Certificates are no longer issued. It is important to keep a copy of your titles in a safe place (whether that is digitally or not).
If you do not have a copy of your titles, you can purchase a copy from the Registers of Scotland. Provided your property is on the modern Land Register, these can be ordered online and will cost a few pounds. Your solicitor should also have kept copies on your behalf for a reasonable time after your purchase.
If your property has not been sold since before the 1980s and has not been re-mortgaged since April 2016, your titles most likely remain on the historic Sasine Register. Sasine titles consist of a bundle of titles and the cost to obtain a full copy of these is substantially more, and requires experience in knowing what titles to purchase. You should consult a solicitor or contact Registers of Scotland if you do not hold a copy of your original Sasine titles.
You can also request the titles for any other property if you know the address or can give a description of the boundaries. You may want to do this if, for instance, you want to find out for what fraction of repair costs the other owners within the tenement are responsible for.
