I am buying a property mortgage free in Ramsey. I have been living for the last Seventeen years in Ramsey. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. Given that I know the area and road intimately should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

In the absence of a home loan, then almost all of the Ramsey conveyancing searches are optional. Your solicitor will 'advise', no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches completed, but he has a professional duty to take that path of guidance. Do take into account; if you are going to dispose of the house one day, it will likely be be of importance to your future buyer what the searches determine.

Should commercial conveyancing searches disclose impending roadworks that could affect a commercial property in Ramsey?

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Ramsey will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Ramsey.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Ramsey is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can give?

Flying freeholds in Ramsey are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Ramsey you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Ramsey may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

Am I better off to go with a Ramsey conveyancing lawyer in close proximity to the house I am hoping to buy? I have an old university friend who can perform the legal formalities however his firm is located a couple of hundredmiles away.

The primary upside of using a high street Ramsey conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to sign documents, present your identification documents and pester them if necessary. Having local Ramsey know how is a benefit. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and the majority were happy that should outweigh using an unknown Ramsey conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being local.
