Local Land Charges Search
A Local Authority Search is usually requested by a solicitor on behalf of purchasers of land or property, and forms part of the conveyancing process. The standard questions give potential buyers details of any restrictions or legal obligations, which are enforceable against successive owners. We carry out all official searches covered by the Local Land Charges Act 1975 and we guarantee comprehensive replies.
