A big part of the conveyancing process is the conveyancing searches. This section tells you all about them. What they are, how and when to order them and how to interpret the results. Each search has its own guide and you'll see they are separated into Standard (should be done in every case), Regional (area specific) and Optional (not essential but often useful tools for the would be purchaser). All buyers should beware that when you buy a property, the law assumes that you have seen the information that would have been revealed by searches whether or not you have actually carried them out, so you buy the property subject to the results.
Using a conveyancer to handle your conveyancing will greatly reduce the risk to you and sometimes, particularly if you are taking out a new mortgage, you will have no choice but to instruct a conveyancer. The good news is it doesn't have to break the bank. Get a free, instant quote here. We can also help with quick easy quotes for other moving related services.

My property was first registered in 1995. My title register contains nothing other than basic details/property address & mortgage.
From sarching the Register of Deeds, the previous owners deeds states:
ALL that messuage or dwellinghouse and garden with the rights easements and appurtenances thereto belonging situate TOGETHER with and subject to but with the benefit of an arrangement regarding drainage.
If I go back to 1927 it refers to a conveyance of the land which also mentions the above section.
Should this information have been added to my title register by the land registry?
My next door neighbours have rights over my property. Their title register states exactly the same as the above but mentions a conveyance was made in 1959.
In 1959 both properties were in common ownership but then sold separately by the same solicitor within a day of eachother.
I'm so confused why my title contains nothing? Is this normal please?
I would advise you instruct a professional conveyancer because it looks like they should have a look at your actual deeds before giving you an answer to this query.
