The Property Law in the UK course is a comprehensive programme designed to introduce learners to the core principles and legal rules governing property in the UK. Starting with an introduction to property law, the course explores the distinction between various forms of property ownership, the legal significance of registered and unregistered land, and the rights and interests that arise in both private and commercial property dealings. It also examines the historical and modern evolution of property law, helping learners grasp its current relevance within the UK legal system.

As students progress, they will delve into more specific areas such as land possession, co-ownership, and leases, along with bailment and licensing of property. These modules equip learners with the ability to distinguish between exclusive ownership and shared rights and provide clarity on the legal obligations and privileges that arise from tenancy agreements and property access permissions. Special focus is given to the mortgage system in the UK, the implications of default, and the relevant consumer protections.

Furthermore, the course discusses proprietary estoppel, a crucial concept for establishing equitable interests in property, and introduces the concept of security interests under the Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR). Learners will also explore the importance of insurance and risk management in maintaining property value and protecting ownership.

By the end of the course, students will have a thorough understanding of the fundamental and advanced concepts that underpin property law in the UK. They will be able to interpret legal documents, advise on land disputes, and navigate complex property transactions with confidence.
