Property searches are checks made to the local authority (Stonehouse council) that might find important information about a property or land you’re looking to buy. Property searches check multiple aspects that may negatively affect the properties value. For example, they’ll check the quality of the ground, check for flooding risk, common drains, access rights and whether planning permission may be granted for further land development.
