I require conveyancing for a flat in a fairly new development (five years old) in Datchet. The vast majority the properties are already sold. Do I need carry out the local searches for my conveyancing in Datchet?
If you getting a mortgage, your lender will require some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Datchet conveyancing searches are for you to decide upon. No doubt your conveyancer, will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should not go ahead without searches, but he or she has a professional duty to do this. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it may be of interest to your future buyer what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you choose to instruct your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or ask you to appoint a different lawyer for your conveyancing in Datchet.

Here are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Datchet
-
The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
New build sellers have put forward a conveyancing practitioner and I've sought an estimate from them. It's nearly £300 cheaper than my local Datchet conveyancer. What's the catch?
Developers often have lists of conveyancing practitioners who are quick and who know the builder's contract and solicitor. As many developers offer an inducement to select their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer won't recommend a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they need an exchange within a tight time frame. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the recommended lawyer is that they may be reluctant to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the housebuilder. If you worry that this may be the case you should remain with your local Datchet conveyancing practitioner.
