Local Authority Searches
Local Authority Searches
In property transactions, obtaining accurate and up-to-date property information is essential. Regulated Local & Council Searches play a crucial role in ensuring transparency for buyers, solicitors, and conveyancers. With the help of Progressive Legal Solutions, property professionals can access reliable and timely property search data, allowing them to make well-informed decisions with confidence.
Local Authority Searches provide essential details about a property, helping buyers and legal professionals assess potential risks and obligations. These searches typically include:
- Local Land Charges Register (LLC1): Reveals restrictions on the property, such as listed buildings, conservation areas, and tree preservation orders.
- CON29 Enquiries: Offers insight into planning decisions, road adoption status, building regulations, public highways, and compulsory purchase orders.
There are two primary types of local authority searches:
Official Local Authority Searches (OLAS)
- Conducted by local councils.
- Data retrieved directly from council records.
- Processing times and costs vary depending on the local authority.
Regulated Local Authority Searches (RLAS)
- Also known as personal searches, conducted by third-party agencies such as Progressive Legal Solutions.
- A faster and cost-effective alternative to official searches.
Offers comprehensive and legally compliant reports.
