I am need of leasehold conveyancing for an apartment in a relatively new development (6 years old) in Ireleth and Askam. 95% of the appartments have already been disposed of. Is it strictly necessary to order conveyancing searches as part of conveyancing in Ireleth and Askam?

Where you are obtaining a loan, your bank will need some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Ireleth and Askam conveyancing searches are for you to decide upon. Your lawyer, will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have the searches done, 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 demand that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or ask you to appoint a different lawyer for your conveyancing in Ireleth and Askam.
