I require conveyancing for an apartment in a fairly new development (6 years built) in Widdrington. Almost all the flats are already occupied. Is it strictly necessary to order conveyancing searches as part of conveyancing in Widdrington?
You are opening yourself up to an unnecessary risk in not carrying out Widdrington conveyancing searches. Without searches you have no clarity over flooding, environmental etc which may mean you walk away due to potential problems down the line. If you are buying mortgage free there is no legal necessity to have them, but we would strongly advise in the strongest possible terms that you have them. If time pressures and expenses are top of your issues you should consider with your solicitor about the viability of search insurance

This question may be naive but I am new to the home buying as FTB of a garden flat in Widdrington. Do I pick up the keys to the house on the completion date from my solicitor? If so, I will appoint a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Widdrington?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the completion advance to the owner’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you should be invited to pick up the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. Usually this happens between 1 and 3pm.
