I am need of leasehold conveyancing for an apartment in a fairly new development (seven years old) in Trefriw. Almost all the properties have already been sold. Is it strictly necessary to order conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Trefriw?
If you are acquiring a property with the assistance of a mortgage, your bank will insist on some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Trefriw conveyancing searches are for you to decide upon. Your solicitor, will 'advise', perhaps in the strongest possible terms, that you should not go ahead without searches, but he or she has a professional duty to do this.

Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you insist that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or it may be necessary to instruct a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Trefriw.

My husband and I plan to acquire our first home in Trefriw. Conveyancing practitioner has been selected. The broker suggested that a survey is not necessary as the property was only built 16 yrs ago.
As the bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. As the residence was constructed more than 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 defects a Home Buyer's report may be sufficient. The report should highlight any obvious problems and suggest additional investigation if appropriate. If there are any signs of problems obtain a full Building Survey from the beginning.
