A Personal Local Authority Search (PLAS) or Regulated Local Authority Search as they are now referred, offers an alternative to the standard Official Local Authority Search (OLAS).

Why should you order a Personal Local Authority Search?

  • Lenders - 90% of high street/domestic lenders will accept a PLAS*.
  • Liability & Indemnity - £10 million Professional Indemnity and £2 million Council Protection for inaccurate data provided by the council.
  • Expertise - Our network of over 50 national search agents are highly trained experienced professionals.
  • Cancellations - Easy to cancel and will receive full refund.
  • Data -A PLAS has exactly the same data as an OLAS.
  • Same format nationally - Easier to read.
  • Accreditations - COPSO, Search Code, PCCB and TPOS alongside ongoing inhouse audits.
  • Competent Person Scheme - Gas Safe and FENSA registers over and above Council records.
  • Faster - In the majority of cases a PLAS is returned quicker than the OLAS.
  • Pricing - One national price that can be a cost effective option for your customers.
