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.

Where two parties purchase a property jointly they will sometimes want to set out certain agreements, such as what percentage of the equity each party is entitled to, who should be responsible for the outgoings, what happens if one party decides they want to sell etc. in writing to help avoid uncertainty or future disagreement. This can be important where the parties are making unequal contributions to the price or where the purchase is by two or more parties who are not romantic partners, such as friends or business partners. In these circumstances it is a good idea to draw up a declaration of trust. Our template is intended to assist with this by providing the basic framework as well as some suggestions as to the sorts of clauses to include. It will of course need to be tailored to meet individual needs.
