My partner and I are buying our first house. Our conveyancer has e-mailedto enquire if we want to order supplemental conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's relevant for conveyancing in Bucklesham

The type of Bucklesham conveyancing searches should be dictated primarily on the property, the location, the possibility of any of these risks, your knowledge of the locality and risks, your general attitude to risk. What matters is that you properly appreciate what information the searches could give you. You may then decide if you consider that you need that information. Should you be in doubt, ask your lawyer to advise.

My partner and I are intent on selling our home in Bucklesham and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A high street Bucklesham lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Bucklesham. Having lived in Bucklesham for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)

I completed on my house on 11 June and the transaction details is not yet registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Bucklesham advises it would be dealt with inside ten days. Are properties in Bucklesham uniquely lengthy to register?

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Bucklesham registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. As of today in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Registration is effected once the new owner is living at the property so registration formalities is not usually primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
