CCOD is a screening dataset for corporate ownership

Commercial and Corporate Ownership Data, usually shortened to CCOD, is published by HM Land Registry and covers registered freehold and leasehold property in England and Wales owned by companies and corporate bodies. It is especially useful when you need to screen ownership quickly across a portfolio or entity universe.

What it usually contains

  • Property and title references
  • Corporate proprietor names
  • Registration timing and tenure clues
  • Address data that helps you connect an entity to a site

It is powerful because it turns corporate ownership into a searchable dataset rather than a one-title-at-a-time process.
