I am purchasing a property mortgage free in Dinnington. I have resided for the previous twelve years in Dinnington. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. Given that I have knowledge of the road and vicinity intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a mortgage, then almost all of the Dinnington conveyancing searches are optional. Your conveyancer will try and sway you, perhaps strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but he has a professional duty to take that path of advice. Do bear in mind; if you are intend to dispose of the house at a future date, it will be of interest to your prospective purchaser what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with apparent issues can still throw up unexpected search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Dinnington will be able to give you some constructive guidance here.

One month into purchasing a residence in Dinnington. Conveyancing solicitor has phoned to say the title is "Leasehold". Should this impact our home loan valuation?
Dinnington conveyancing does not usually involve leasehold houses. The main factor here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are over a hundred years remaining with a peppercorn rent, it's almost the same as freehold, so it’s unlikely to impact the value significantly.
At the other extreme, if it's, say, Sixty years it will have a significant effect on the value, and probably wouldn't be acceptable to the bank. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be specified in the lease to be supplied to your property lawyer.
