Regulated searches are currently faster in Sheffield. Regulated searches are produced to a consistent national format, so your conveyancer and lender can read them faster. Even when the raw turnaround is a day or two longer than the council's, the report itself is quicker to interpret and less likely to come back with queries — which is usually where transactions actually stall.

What's slowing Sheffield down right now
