If you're thinking about buying or leasing a property or a plot of land, we recommend you request a local land charges search first. The search will tell you what you need to be aware of before going ahead. This may include:
- restrictions on use or preservation orders
- planning applications that may affect the property or land
- whether the property or land has received any grants which could be repayable
- road information or potential new road schemes which may influence the decision to buy
