Many property professionals know Independent Personal Search Agents (IPSA) best for their work in residential property searches. Yet IPSA members also offer another service that's perhaps less well known - commercial property searches.

This Wednesday at 1pm, our latest IPSA Kind Of Magic episode, "Residential Searches First - Now Commercial Too," explores precisely that.

Commercial searches aren't identical to residential ones. They require a different approach and a clear understanding of what's needed by solicitors and their clients. The personal, careful attention IPSA members typically offer residential clients naturally transfers to commercial searches as well.

A particular strength of IPSA members is their focus on building strong, trusting relationships with clients. Unlike larger corporate search providers, IPSA agents invest the time necessary to genuinely understand client requirements. This approach has led several members to start offering commercial search services, helping solicitors, property investors, and even those dealing with agricultural land transactions.

Wednesday’s conversation will be led by Gareth Wax, alongside Jackie Dyson, exploring how relationships built through residential work often create opportunities in commercial sectors. Jackie Dyson will share insights from her experience in commercial searches, explaining how these relationships positively influence outcomes. We also have the pleasure of being joined by Bharti Bhuva and Sharon Whitney, both of Whitefield Legal Services.

This episode is especially useful for solicitors involved in commercial property, agricultural land, and investors seeking reliable information. It provides an opportunity to see how working with an independent, relationship-driven provider could enhance your outcomes, manage risks better, and build even stronger client connections.

If you've previously thought of IPSA only for residential searches, this podcast is an ideal way to expand your viewpoint. Whether you're a solicitor reviewing your options or an investor seeking confidence and clarity, Wednesday’s discussion could offer valuable insights into the advantages of independent property search providers.
