A friend recommended that where I am buying in Sherwood I should ask my conveyancer to execute a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?

How does conveyancing in Sherwood differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Sherwood come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because new home sellers in Sherwood tend to purchase 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 Sherwood or who has acted in the same development.
What does commercial conveyancing in Sherwood cover?
Sherwood conveyancing for business premises covers a broad array of guidance, offered by qualified solicitors, relating to business premises.

Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial loans and the termination of tenancies.
I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Sherwood. Before diving in I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Sherwood - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

The best form of lease arrangement is a share of the freehold. In this situation the lessees benefit from control and notwithstanding that a managing agent is usually employed if it is larger than a house conversion, the managing agent is directed by the tenants. Does the lease include onerous restrictions? It is important to be aware whether redecorating or some other major work is anticipated that will be shared by the leaseholders and could well dramatically impact the level of the service charges or result in a specific invoice.
