Law Society advice is that solicitors must consider whether contamination is an issue in a conveyance and that they should undertake independent site history investigation. This can be achieved with an environmental report from York Place. We supply a complete range of searches for residential and commercial properties from the leading specialists in this area. The reports all reveal information not found in a local authority search and can contribute to a purchaser's peace of mind.
