I require conveyancing for a flat in a relatively new development (seven years built) in Mansfield Woodhouse. 95% of the appartments are already sold. Is it really necessary to order conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Mansfield Woodhouse?
If you getting a loan, your lender will need some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Mansfield Woodhouse conveyancing searches are for you to decide upon. Your lawyer, will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have the searches done, 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.

I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Mansfield Woodhouse. The Mansfield Woodhouse property was put into my name in July. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in July. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be caught by that. How practical a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this clause primarily exists to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of properties.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Mansfield Woodhouse off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with Barclays. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds.

My partner and I soon to exchange buying a property in Mansfield Woodhouse but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have agreed compensation from the seller of £2k in the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process however the mortgage company will not agree to this. Why were they involved?
The lawyer that is on the bank approved list is duty bound to advise the mortgage company of any variations to the sale price. In the event that you were to refuse your conveyancing practitioner to disclose the reduction to your bank then they would have no choice but to disinstructing themselves from representing you and the mortgage company.
