Local Land Charges are responsible for the maintenance of the Land Charges Register, which holds information that is relevant to land and property, and also responsible for answering local search requests, which reveals this information when a local search is applied for.
You can request a local search in several ways. First by completing the official forms (available for download below) and posting them to us with the relevant fee.
Alternatively you can use the NLIS system to submit you search electronically.
Our preferred method is to use our own Online System. This enables us to automatically download the search into our back office system, we then process the search results and use the online system to email the search result back.
The main benefit of our own online system is a quicker response to your search request. It is quick and simple to use and is complimented by a monthly account payment system so you will only get an invoice once a month.
If you are interested in using our online system to submit your search please contact us on 01775 764831 or email
landcharge@sholland.gov.uk.
