I am acquiring a house mortgage free in Sheringham. I have resided for the previous dozen years in Sheringham. Conveyancing searches are expensive. As I know the area and road very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?
In the absence of a home loan, then all but one or two of the Sheringham conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your lawyer will try and steer you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but she is duty bound to do this. Do take into account; if you are going to sell the house at a future date, it could be of interest to your prospective purchaser what the searches disclose. There are plenty of instances where properties with functional issues can still show up unpredicted search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Sheringham will be able to give you some constructive advice concerning this.
