Just been in touch with my conveyancing lawyer in Barton under Needwood who completed the legal work 18 months ago asking for a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of home move (a leasehold premises and a freehold property) of similar values with a loan from Britannia. It looks as though am now being quoted double. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for a cheaper online conveyancer?
The estimate does seem a little steep. If you you were to look around you could trim some of the expense by perhaps £125.

I am the registered owner of a freehold residence in Barton under Needwood but nevertheless pay rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Barton under Needwood and has limited impact for conveyancing in Barton under Needwood but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be extinguished.
My partner and I are selling our house in Barton under Needwood and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Barton under Needwood. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Barton under Needwood - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties.
