About Yorkshire Searches Ltd

Yorkshire Searches is a locally based firm in West Yorkshire, with easy access to all of the County of Yorkshire and part of its neighbouring county Lancashire. The company provided searches to Solicitors and Conveyancers in the conveyancing process.

Our searches are carried out by people trained by the Local Authority in the Land Charges and Planning department. Our office staff has knowledge of the search process and make up, what we believe is a team that is second to none.

Our searches are laid out in an easy to read format and include additional information not revealed in a Local Authority search and are included in the price.

As our sister companies, AccuHIP & AccuRating, we are not a franchise but a team of people who want your client’s experience of moving house be as stress free as possible and with the best search service.

We look after our clients as we would wish to be looked after ourselves, with care, attention, diplomacy, politely and with as much help and information as possible.

Why, as a conveyancer, should you choose Yorkshire Searches?

  • Our search team has over 40 years experience
  • We are a one-stop-shop for all your search needs: Searches, HIPs, EPCs and the unique service of Deed/Conveyance/Indenture retrieval from the Archive department at Wakefield.
  • Competitive rates

  • Additional information provided
  • We are PCCB & HIP code registered and a member of the Independent Personal Search Agents (I.P.S.A.) and are in fact a founder member of the I.P.S.A.

All our clients are more than pleased with our service and have used Yorkshire Searches for many years. They find that because of the Local Authority training we can answer questions and queries quickly and efficiently and if we cannot answer there and then , we know which department to contact and obtain the necessary information. No need to send a letter that will lay in someone's intray for days before being looked at.

In view of this, your client gets a faster, efficient service to complete the conveyancing process quickly and smoothly and with less hassle.

With the website you can log in with your personal ID and keep a check on the progress of your searches and HIPs without having to ring the office and therefore keep your client up to date when they ring you for a progress report.
