I am acquiring a property for cash in Loddon. I have lived for the previous 20 years in Loddon. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As 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 Loddon conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your solicitor will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have searches done, but he is duty bound to take that path of guidance. Do consider; if you are intend to dispose of the house in the future, it may be of interest to your future buyer what the searches reveal. On occasion houses with functional issues can still show up negative search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Loddon will be able to give you some sensible advice here.
We hope to to buy with Earl Shilton BS. We have called around locally but cant to find a Loddon conveyancing firm on the Earl Shilton BS panel. Please you help?

Should my solicitor be raising questions concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Loddon.
Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors dealing with homes in Loddon. Some people will buy a property in Loddon, completely expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the purchaser.
Lawyers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that can be undertaken by the purchaser or by their conveyancers which will figure out the risks in Loddon. The standard information sent to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a usual inquiry of the seller to determine whether the premises has historically flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past which is not notified by the seller, then a buyer may issue a claim for damages stemming from an incorrect reply. The buyer’s conveyancers should also commission an environmental report. This should reveal whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be made.
I have justfound out that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Loddon for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I check that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest way to see if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Loddon conveyancing specialists.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Loddon I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Loddon suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Reduce 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 may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
