    Turnaround Times

    Our current turnaround time for administering searches is 15 to 18 working days.

    Please note that our Customer Contact Centre are unable to offer advice on progress of searches and can only offer general information as published on this page.

    Searches

    A Local Land Charge Search should be carried out when a property or piece of land is being sold, purchased, leased or valued to find out if there are any matters affecting that property or piece of land.

    Searches are usually carried out in two parts. 

    The first part of the Search (LLC1) deals with all registerable charges such as planning conditions, tree preservation orders, planning agreements, listed buildings, some enforcement issues, housing grants and financial charges. 

    The second part (CON29) deals with issues such as road schemes, planning history and environmental matters.

    The information given on a search relates only to the property or land identified on the search plan. The Council does not provide information regarding surrounding property or land unless this is specifically requested.

    Drainage enquiries are dealt with by Southern Water.

    All search requests are treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

    Cancellation Policy

    We are unable to cancel an official search, LLC1 Search request or CON29 response request once they have been accepted and we have taken the fee.

    Expedite Policy

    We do not offer an expedite service, all our searches (Official, Personal, LLC1 and CON29 responses) are dealt with in order of receipt.
