I am acquiring a property without a mortgage in Ruxley. I have been living for the last 15 years in Ruxley. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I have knowledge of the area and road very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

Your lawyer will try and sway you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but she is duty bound to do this.

A selection of banks and building societies now make use of CQS as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander.

Will commercial conveyancing searches reveal impending roadworks that may impact a commercial premises in Ruxley?

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Ruxley will conduct a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers spend in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Ruxley. The search result provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Ruxley.

These searches are not ordered for residential conveyancing in Ruxley.

How does conveyancing in Ruxley differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Ruxley come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Ruxley usually buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Ruxley or who has acted in the same development.
