Wouldn't it be great if you knew how much your new neighbour's house cost!?! Especially in such a property and home ownership obsessed country where prices are apparently going up or down by £100s each month. Rather than have to ask the embarrasing question, "How much did you pay?", you can now find out all the nitty gritty for just £2.
All you need to do is obtain the postcode and speak to the officials over at the Land Registry in the UK. Not only will you discover how much was paid, but you will also be able to discover your new neighbours' full names and the mortgage company providing the finances to pay for the house!!
The only problem with that is if you are the purchaser, frankly, there is no reason I can see why your neighbours should need to know any of these details. It's a private transaction that should not be open to public scrutiny. Why do the provisions of the Data Protection Act not apply in this case? Can public access to such information assist in future Identity theft cases?
