Commercial Property searches without the headache
When dealing with large scale or even small scale commercial properties, it’s imperative that you run all of the usual searches before a transaction goes ahead.
Accordingly, you place your order with your search provider on their online ordering platform and are given a set price to carry out this work. So, why do you then receive an email, phone call or additional invoice stating that the searches actually incur further costs?
This is due to the nature of commercial properties; each one is completely different! Unlike with residential properties, the standard fees set by both Local and Water Authorities more often than not incurs additional costs. So, when your search provider informs you that additional fees are required, you then have to present these unexpected fees to your own client, often delaying the process further.
So how come you weren’t quoted this price originally?
Well, accurate fees are usually only confirmed when the address and outlined plan have been submitted to the relevant authorities. There are set fees for the most basic of commercial properties or land, however it’s often the case that these authorities identify the property to comprise of one or more additional parcels which will most certainly incur additional fees. This process clearly isn’t ideal when ordering commercial property searches, and as a result we have come up with a solution to overcome these issues.
We offer the simplest method for ordering commercial property searches; just email us your requirements along with a plan and we’ll get back to you with upfront costs and timescales before you decide whether to proceed.

Our experience with GlobalX is like no other experience we have had with other search providers. The website is very easy to use, you know exactly where to go to place new searches and where to find existing searches. There is always someone on the end of the line who is willing to help, Ben Buckley and Tan Nguyen are extremely helpful not only assisting us when needed but keeping us updated with the progress of our searches.
Birketts has been using GlobalX for a number of years now and the quality and range of their services is excellent, and so is their customer care. Their website is extremely user-friendly producing quick and efficient results, and the CourtCheX service in particular is one we would highly recommend
GlobalX’s service is second to none. Tan and Ben in the property search team always answer calls and reply to emails without delay, making for a great personal service and getting our client’s property purchase off to an excellent start.
I have been a regular user of GlobalX’s conveyancing searches for several months and I highly recommend them. The ease of use of their website is outstanding, and the customer service received is always superb. In particular, Tan Nguyen and Benedict Buckley have always provided a professional and friendly service to both myself and my colleagues.
GlobalX have been excellent since we started using them. Tan, Kai, Ben and the rest of the team are very efficient and are always at the other end of the phone if there is an issue or if you need something doing urgently. They are also more akin to commercial and residential development sites than other search providers and offer a more bespoke service.
Everyone is delighted with the efficiency and ease of use of the service – previously we had lawyers on the phone to the relevant court wasting huge amounts of mainly unbillable time. I would highly recommend this service.
We have only used CourtChex once, but we have found the service efficient and the cost very competitive. We will certainly be trying the service again in the near future and, if it works as well as last time, I will be rolling it out in our other offices.
I spoke to the help desk yesterday who were absolutely fantastic and did the searches straight away. I'm very impressed by the whole set up you have and the customer service you all provide is excellent
Fast and efficient. Error free and trustworthy
Thank you very much for your assistance with this formation - seamless as usual.
