Each property is unique and each local council has its own fees for the property searches it performs. Our standard searches fee include: local authority searches (planning issues, building control issues, highways issues, pollution issues), environmental searches (flooding issues, landslide issues, subsidence issues, contaminated land issues) and water and drainage searches (who owns and maintains the sewers, drains & piping, if the property is connected to a public water supply and sewer, whether the water supply is metered or rateable, the location of public sewer and drainage pipes and whether you’ll need permission from the water company to extend the home). Additional searches may be necessary if the property is a mining area or needs to contribute to chancel repair. Contact us for a meeting to discuss this fully and for a comprehensive quote.

The above estimate of costs is just that, an estimate. For a more accurate quote on costs contact our conveyancing team using the form below and we will be in touch for more details.
