Local land charges
About local land charges
A local land search is required whenever a property is advertised for sale, leased or re-mortgaged and is one of the required elements in a Home Information Pack (HIP).
Your solicitor will make a search of the Council's records to ensure there are no hidden surprises, such as:
- repayment of monies owed to the Council
- preservation order on a tree situated on the land
- future developments that could affect the property
Below are a list of the charges:
| LLC1 and Con29R (standard search forms) | £88.00 |
| LLC1 (search of the land charges register only) | £11.00 |
| Con29O | £5.00 each |
| Additional solicitors questions | £25.00 each |
| Extra parcels of land | £7.50 each |
| Expedition fee | £10.00 |
The types of the available application forms are explained on the next page.
