I require conveyancing for an apartment in a relatively new development (five years old) in Woolavington. 95% of the properties have already been sold. Is it really necessary to order conveyancing searches as part of conveyancing in Woolavington?

If not, then Woolavington conveyancing searches are for you to decide upon. Your lawyer, will ’encourage’, 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 insist that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or it may be necessary to instruct a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Woolavington.

It’s unusual for properties in Woolavington and has limited impact for conveyancing in Woolavington but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of fresh rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
