UK Property Search services

As providers of property search support to lawyers in the residential and commercial legal field for many years, Stanley Davis is recognised as a leading property search agency. With the acquisition of our sister company, York Place Company Services, Stanley Davis Group is now able to dramatically improve this offering.

Over the past twenty years, we have witnessed a growth in the number of transactional moves and a requirement for information to be made available more quickly to satisfy the market.

Central Government’s encouragement for online conveyancing, interest rate stability and the availability of finance have all played their part in changing the expectation of the buyer and the delivery by the lawyer acting in the conveyance.

National disasters including flooding, BSE and contaminated land issues have brought to the forefront the need for additional information to that provided by the Local Authority.

With the imminent arrival of Home Information Packs, the market is looking to those it can trust to provide the necessary range of searches and expertise.

As a result, a new wave of property search support has arrived which recognises the need for speedy information from a range of land data providers and the ability to deliver electronically.

Stanley Davis Group is part of this wave offering the most comprehensive local authority personal search on the market, dealing with all the land data providers, receiving instructions and delivering results using every media. Our systems are xml compliant and our approach is personal to the needs of our clients.

As well as offering the full range of property searches we also provide search indemnities which are useful when the search is delayed, requires validating or where there can be no transactional move and the search is negated.
