Me and my fiancee are acquiring our first property. Our conveyancer has e-mailedto enquire if we would like to take out supplemental conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's recommended for conveyancing in Bexhill
The extent of Bexhill conveyancing searches should be triggered based primarily on the premises, the location, the likelihood of any of these risks, your familiarity of the region and risks, your general appetite to risk. What is important is that you adequately understand what information each search could provide. Then you can decide if you personally think you need that information. Should you be unclear, ask your conveyancer to recommend.
We are planning on selling our house in Bexhill and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using an internet conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Bexhill. Having lived in Bexhill for 4 years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Bexhill I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Bexhill for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
