See who decides, and how to reach them

Praetor reads the Gazette, Companies House and HM Land Registry every day and matches each commercial title to its owner's state. A plan shows the owner, the administrator, liquidator or receiver who now decides a sale, every published route to them with its source, and a first letter ready to send. A due diligence pack covers one title in full, with no plan needed.

See plans and pricing

Counts are of commercial titles held by companies in England and Wales (HM Land Registry's company ownership files), matched to the owner's state from Companies House and The Gazette, and refreshed every hour. A title Praetor's analysts have hidden is not counted.
