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 need a basic contract to accompany the attached letter. Can you advise please.
Dear Ms Morgan
I have failed to achieve successful communication with you following your court appearance on 27 March, whereupon your TOLATA case was awarded in your favour.
In order to expedite communication, I have obtained a transcript of proceedings from the court and the Judge's additional directions on your award.
As you are aware I wish to resolve matters as soon as possible and to secure tenure of the property by purchasing your share of interest in the property.
I enclose a copy of the relevant section of the court transcript, with direction that I can buy the property at the price stated within the order, that being £492,000.
I additionally enclose an Excel spreadsheet prepared by Breathe Financial illustrating the deductions and costs of sale and the 50% share due to each owner of £97,098.
I propose forwarding you an initial payment of £30,000 and then within 14 days of this payment forwarding the full settlement amount or, if my mortgage application has not completed, an additional payment of £30,000 within 45 days with the balance on final completion. I have been informed that on your acceptance of this offer my mortgage application should finalise in approximately 4 - 8 weeks.
At final completion additional payments will be reconciled with regards to fees, losses and costs and I would pay a mutually agreed figure.
In additional I ask that you return all items of my property which have been held by you since our separation in 2014.
I trust you will be in agreement with the attached and I ask that you provide your signature of agreement on the attached contract and advice as to your preferred method and point of payment.
Should you have any additional points or enquiry, please feel free to contact me.
Yours sincerely
Emmanuel
