We are intent on selling our home in Beaconsfield and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a national conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Beaconsfield. Having lived in Beaconsfield for many years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to check with 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 sickness)
I have justbecome aware that Stirling Law have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Beaconsfield for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I establish that the property is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest method to see if the property is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Beaconsfield conveyancing specialists.

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
