I am acquiring a property without a mortgage in Small Heath. I have lived for the previous 20 years in Small Heath. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. As I have knowledge of the area and road intimately should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?
If you not getting a mortgage, then all but one or two of the Small Heath conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your solicitor will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have searches done, but he is duty bound to do this. Do bear in mind; if you are going to dispose of the house at a future date, it could be of importance to your prospective buyer what the searches reveal. There are plenty of instances where houses with apparent issues can still throw up unexpected search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Small Heath will provide you some helpful advice concerning this.
