I am acquiring a property mortgage free in Winchmore Hill. I have resided for the previous twelve years in Winchmore Hill. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. As I have knowledge of the area and road very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?

If you not getting a mortgage, then all but one or two of the Winchmore Hill conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your solicitor will try and sway you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but he is duty bound to do this. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to dispose of the house at a future date, it may be of relevance to your future purchaser what the searches disclose.

It is 10 years ago since I acquired my property in Winchmore Hill. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to track down my deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be kept by your lender or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in the purchase. Secondly in most cases the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring up to date copy of the land registers.
