I require conveyancing for an apartment in a relatively new development (seven years built) in Norwood. 95% of the properties have already been occupied. Is it strictly necessary to order neighbourhood searches for my conveyancing in Norwood?

Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you demand that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or you will need to swap to an alternative solicitor for your conveyancing in Norwood.
