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.

I was planning to buy CASH a property. upper floor maisonette with front drive, detached back garden and detached garage. The garage is Freehold Title, the maisonette and most of front drive is Absolute Lease, a small triangular section of front garden that meets the pavement is Good Lease. However some land registry plans indicate at different times the that the Good Lease triangle has a thin line (making it look like a letter P)that stretches across most of access to the drive. I am concerned that I would be buying a domestic property that has three types of Title, requires indemnity for access to drive to garage at back of property, indemnity for land on the front drive, that may or may not stretch across my access over front drive. I am concerned that when I come to sell the property that any new buyer who (unlike me) needs a mortgage may find it difficult to have a mortgage granted by the mainstream high street banks. Please can you tell me if it may be difficult to get a mortgage on. Title AGL89451 is the garage. Title AGL511018 (previously known as AGL90428) is the Good Lease small bit of land and TITLE ABSOLUTE. Title number AGL464707 (previously known as AGL89449)is the maisonette, most of front drive and the back garden. Please help as I do not want difficulties when I come to sell or try to raise funds from the equity. Kind regards
