I require conveyancing for an apartment in a relatively new development (five years built) in Heckington. Almost all the properties are already occupied. Do I need carry out the neighbourhood searches as part of conveyancing in Heckington?
You are taking a significant risk in not carrying out Heckington conveyancing searches. Without searches you have no clarity over flooding, environmental etc which may mean you walk away due to potential problems down the line. If you are buying without a mortgage there is no legal necessity to have them, but we would seriously advise in no uncertain terms that your conveyancer conducts them. If timings and cost are primary concerns you should discuss with your lawyer about the options such as indemnity insurance available to you
Having sold my house in Heckington last March yet the purchaser is texting me to say his lawyer is waiting to hear from myconveyancer. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?
Post completion of your disposal your conveyancer is committed to deliver the transfer documentation and all additional paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. If applicable, your conveyancer should also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the buyers lawyers. There are no post completion formalities just for conveyancing in Heckington.

I'm purchasing my first flat in Heckington with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not inform my lawyer about this extras as it may jeopardize my loan with Nottingham Building Society. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
