I am acquiring a property mortgage free in Nag's Head. I have lived for the last 15 years in Nag's Head. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. As I know the road and vicinity very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?
In the absence of a home loan, then the vast majority of the Nag's Head conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your conveyancer will try and sway you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but she is duty bound to do this. One thing to consider; if you are likely to dispose of the house in the future, it will be of interest to your prospective purchaser what the searches reveal. Sometimes premises with apparent issues can still show up unfavourable search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Nag's Head will provide you some constructive advice here.

It is not something that solicitors ordinarily organise.

I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in December 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Leeds Building Society are being difficult. The Nag's Head solicitor who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Leeds Building Society are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Leeds Building Society have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Leeds Building Society have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Leeds Building Society may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

My wife and I intend to purchase our 1st property in Nag's Head. Conveyancing solicitor has been selected. The financial consultant suggested that a survey is not necessary as the house was only built twenty two years ago.
You would be best advised to take a Home Buyer's Report. As the premises was built over a decade ago the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may suffice. They will highlight any apparent issues and recommend further investigation where relevant. If there are any indications of material issues obtain a comprehensive structural survey.
