Who makes a search

Who makes the search?
Normally a conveyancer or solicitor carries out the official search on your behalf. This agent should also make any additional enquiries before entering you into the contract to purchase the property.

If you are carrying out your own search, or dealing with the conveyancing of the property yourself, please see the sections on personal searches and electronic conveyancing.
