I am acquiring a house without a mortgage in Atherstone. I have lived for the previous 20 years in Atherstone. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I have knowledge of the road and vicinity very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a home loan, then the vast majority of the Atherstone conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your lawyer will try and sway you, perhaps strongly, that you should have searches completed, but she has a professional duty to do this.

Sometimes properties with day to day issues can still throw up adverse search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Atherstone will be able to give you some helpful advice here.
