I require conveyancing for a flat in a fairly new development (seven years built) in Beddgelert. The vast majority the flats are already sold. Is it strictly necessary to order local searches as part of conveyancing in Beddgelert?

If you are buying a property with the assistance of a mortgage, your bank will insist on some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Beddgelert conveyancing searches are for you to decide upon. No doubt your conveyancer, will ’encourage’, perhaps in the strongest possible terms, that you should not go ahead without searches, but he or she is duty bound in this regard. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it may be of interest to your future buyer what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you choose to instruct your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or you may need to instruct a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Beddgelert.
