Conveyancing property searches are checks made to the local authority (Wolsingham council) that can find additional information about the property or land you’re looking to buy. Property searches check different aspects that might negatively affect the properties value. Search results will check the quality of the ground, check for flooding risk, common drains, access rights and if planning permission may be approved for further property development. The searches must be completed and approved before the exchange contracts. If you plan on remortgaging, lenders will not ask for searches to be carried out.
