I am buying a house without a mortgage in Wynyard. I have been living for the last 20 years in Wynyard. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. As I have knowledge of the road and vicinity very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?
If you not getting a home loan, then the vast majority of the Wynyard conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your lawyer will try and steer you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches completed, but she has a professional duty to take that path of advice. Do bear in mind; if you are going to sell the house at a future date, it will likely be be of interest to your future purchaser what the searches disclose. On occasion houses with day to day issues can still show up unfavourable search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Wynyard will provide you some practical advice here.

My partner and I are in the throws of looking at flats in Wynyard and I am about to put in an offer. Should I already have a property lawyer appointed at this stage? I will be getting a mortgage with Aldermore.
You should start requesting conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the EA. As you are obtaining a mortgage with Aldermore, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Wynyard off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with TSB. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with TSB, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the TSB conveyancing panel.
My wife and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Wynyard and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using an online conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Wynyard. We have lived in Wynyard for many years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one close by in Wynyard I like with a park and station nearby, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Wynyard for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
Given that I am about to spend over three hundred thousand on a garden flat in Wynyard I wish to have a conversation with the lawyer concerning theconveyancing prior to instructing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?
