Me and my fiancee are acquiring our first home. The conveyancing practitioner has texted usto see if we wish to purchase additional conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's needed for conveyancing in Leicestershire
The range of Leicestershire conveyancing searches depends entirely on the property, the location, the likelihood of any of these risks, your familiarity of the region and risks, your general appetite to risk. What is important is that you properly understand what information the searches could give you. Then you can decide if you consider that you need that information. Where you are unclear, ask the conveyancing practitioner to advise.
Can I use your services to recommend a Conveyancing solicitor in Leicestershire even if I’m not buying or selling a house, for instance if I want to acquire an office in Leicestershire with a loan from Alliance & Leicester ?

Various web forums that I have come across warn that are the primary reason for delay in Leicestershire house deals. Is there any truth in this?

Local searches are not likely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Leicestershire.
I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Leicestershire I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Leicestershire suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
