I am purchasing a house mortgage free in Trentham. I have been living for the previous Seventeen years in Trentham. Conveyancing searches are expensive. As I have knowledge of the road and vicinity very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Trentham. I have a mortgage offer with Nationwide. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds.

I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in September 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Santander are being problematic. The Trentham solicitor who is on the Santander conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Santander are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Santander have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Santander have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Santander 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.

Will my solicitor be raising enquiries concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Trentham.

The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a buyer’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a usual question of the vendor to determine whether the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the vendor, then a buyer may bring a legal claim for losses as a result of such an misleading response. A purchaser’s solicitors should also carry out an environmental search. This will disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries will need to be carried out.
