Land searches
A Local Authority Search consists of two parts and an Optional Form for additional enquiries:
- CON29 - deals with issues such as road schemes, the planning history of the property and environmental matters.
- CON29O - an optional form dealing with additional enquiries that may relate specifically to the land/property being searched.
You should receive the search results within 15 working days. We do not carry out searches any faster. The searches that arrive at our offices sooner will be processed sooner.
If you have not received your search results after 15 working days, please contact us using the contact details at the bottom of this page.
The cut-off point for accepting new searches each day is 10.30am. If we receive your search request after this time we will begin processing it the following working day.
Land search forms
These forms can either be submitted together or separately. For example, if there is just one question on the CON29O that you would like answered there is no need to submit a full search. We will still require a plan.
If there is anything else you want to know about the land that isn't revealed as standard, you can ask additional questions of your own.
