To give you an understanding of the way a transactions usually happens; you accept an offer on your property or have your offer accepted, after which point you search for a conveyancer, it's not until around 7-10 days later you start filling out forms to get legally set up.

Well, here at onthemove our  Express Move Service is a trialed and tested method in which we get the forms out to you to complete before you either accept an offer or have your offer accepted. This pack is designed to get as much as the useful information over to your conveyancer to ensure there's no time being wasted in the set up part of the legal work, and you are able to get going straight away!

Property searches are carried out by your conveyancer to supply you and your lender with confidence in the property and the land surrounding the property your purchasing. 

The three main conveyancing searches that are provided are:

1. Local Authority Search
2. Water and Drainage Search
3. Environmental Search 

These provide your conveyancer and mortgage lender with the information to show that the property is legally sound and mortgagebale.

The 2 main benefits of a local authority search are: 

1. The first part of the search is whether there is any building restrictions on the property which could devalue the property. 
2. The second part of the search is there to check whether there are any schemes for new roads for public highways, railways or planning decisions that could impact the property.

A water and drainage search is a search to ensure the property you are purchasing is linked to the mains drainage and its main water supply. 

The environmental search is a search carried out with a local environmental agency, this search gives your conveyancer the information of past uses of the land to see if it has caused any potential contamination of the land on which the property is situated.
