IPSA (The Association of Independent Personal Search Agents) is the leading UK trade association for personal search agents and membership includes some of the largest search firms in the country as well as many independent companies and sole traders. All IPSA members are registered with, and regulated by, the Property Codes Compliance Board, and any products provided by members comply with the Search Code and other industry-wide recognised accreditations. All members’ products and services are covered by at least £2million indemnity.
The launch of IPSA Searches, a new brand falling under the IPSA umbrella, provides conveyancers with a new way to find their Expert Local Search Provider. Their new website, www.ipsasearches.co.uk, not only details some of the many benefits of working with a local IPSA member firm, but also helps conveyancers to find the company nearest to their location using a mapping function.
Many conveyancers are already familiar with the advantages of working with their local IPSA member, but they are often unaware that their trusted provider can also obtain Regulated Personal Searches for properties throughout the whole of England and Wales through the network of IPSA members. Each member is, in effect, a national search provider. The map on the website helps to illustrate this point.
Conveyancers who prefer to:
- deal with real people rather than call centres
- be treated as an individual not just another account at head office
- talk to the person who carried out the search
- have their searches carried out by experienced local agents
should visit ipsasearches.co.uk and talk to their nearest member firm.
