CDS Regulated Local Authority Search

A local authority search is a crucial step in the property-buying journey. It provides vital details that could determine whether your client wants to go ahead with the purchase, including planning and building regulations, roads and public rights of way, transport schemes, and Community Infrastructure Levies.

This is a ‘Regulated’ search provided by CDS. They are an experienced, reliable, fast provider offering a standardised search nationally at a fixed price with comprehensive insurance cover up to £10 million.

‘Official’ searches come directly from the local authority, which is also responsible for their accuracy. ‘Regulated’ searches are provided by a third party who accesses local authority data on your behalf, which can sometimes be quicker, and they are also liable for its accuracy.
