The Law of Property Act of 1925 is a statute in UK law. It was legislated and enacted by parliament between 1922 and 1925, with the purpose of modernizing UK laws related to the transfer of real property (land, buildings, factories, etc. of an "unmovable" nature, as opposed to "personal property" that can be picked up and taken with you.)

Very basically, the statute, and it's revisions over the years, as noted above, have been undertaken to "modernize" land ownership in the UK, transitioning from a form of law where all land technically belongs to the crown and can only pass by feudal title, to a form where real property can be transferred in fee simple by citizens, or leased from other citizens or the crown.

The statute, in it's entirety, is, of course, much more complicated than this, and covers a great deal of legal territory and contingency. If you are considering any purchase of real property in the UK you should consult with a solicitor who specializes in real property law.

This is, of course, true for anyone attempting to purchase a noble title, as well. (Web sites claiming to sell noble titles often reference the Law of Property Act of 1925) For all intents and purposes, it is impossible to purchase a noble title in the UK.
