LSL has acquired National Search Service (NSS), a property search company operating in England and Wales.

The acquisition adds to LSL’s existing conveyancing services, which are provided by Homefast.

NSS is a family-owned business founded in 2004. It provides property searches to the legal profession, both directly and through a franchising model. The company works with law firms and estate agents and is regulated by the Property Codes Compliance Board (PCCB), subscribing to the Search Code.

The business is based in Huddersfield and will transfer in full to LSL. There will be no operational changes, and the founders will remain with the business during the transition.

NSS provides regulated property search services used by conveyancing firms and estate agents.

Paul Hardy, managing director of LSL Estate Agency Franchising, commented: “We are pleased to welcome NSS into the LSL Group. Their reputation for quality and compliance aligns perfectly with our values, and this acquisition will enhance the support we offer to our franchise partners and clients across England and Wales.”
