Local knowledge
Things to know when moving in Bromley
Green belt and rural properties
Homes towards Biggin Hill, Downe and the borough’s southern edge can sit in the green belt, which limits extensions and outbuildings. We check the planning history and flag anything built without permission.
Conservation areas
Parts of Chislehurst, Beckenham and Bromley town have conservation area status, which can restrict changes to windows, trees and front gardens. We confirm whether the property is affected and what that means for your plans.
Private roads and shared drives
Some streets in the borough are unadopted private roads, and larger houses often share access. We check who maintains the road and whether you have the rights of way you need.

Questions
Moving in Bromley
Yes. We run every matter by phone, email and online, so distance makes no practical difference. Searches for a house in Beckenham or Orpington are ordered from Bromley Council and other providers the same way any firm would order them. We keep you updated throughout and deal directly with local agents and solicitors.
Not necessarily, but it needs checking. On an unadopted road, residents usually share the cost of repairs, and your lender will want to see proper access rights. We review the title and searches, ask the seller about any road maintenance arrangements, and explain any costs you might be asked to contribute to.
