I require conveyancing for a flat in a relatively new development (five years old) in Yiewsley. The vast majority the properties are already occupied. Do I need carry out the conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Yiewsley?
You are putting yourself at risk in failing carrying out Yiewsley conveyancing searches. Without searches you have no clarity over flooding, environmental etc which may mean you walk away due to potential problems down the line. If you are buying mortgage free there is no legal necessity to have them, but we would seriously advise in the strongest possible terms that you have them. If accelerating the process and expenses are primary concerns you should consider with your lawyer about the option of search insurance
I am considering applying for a Skipton mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in Yiewsley with 65 per cent LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Skipton ?
There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but Skipton will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is much more potential for delays and confusion with an additional lawyer added to the mix, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.
I used Stirling Law a few years past for my conveyancing in Yiewsley. I now require my papers but cannot find the solicitor. What do I do?

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one near me in Yiewsley I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Yiewsley in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years will be problematic. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
