My best friend’s sister is a conveyancer. I hope that I can be offered preferential pricing for conveyancing, However if that does not come through, what kind of fees would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Bingley?
Do compare pricing. Do use our comparison tool on this page. Whilst estimates seem to vary but service levels do are distinct between property lawyers as is true with most professions.
We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to instruct their panel lawyer as I would much rather appoint a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Bingley?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers should you accept the "fee-free" deal. Speak to the bank to see if they allow a cash alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Bingley.

I have just started marketing my basement apartment in Bingley. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have recently received a yearly maintenance charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you discharge the invoice as normal as all ground rent and service charges should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

Our conveyancing solicitor in Bingley has informed me that he requires identification documents stating that this forms part of his requirements as a conveyancer on the bank Solicitor panel. Am I being spun a yarn?
Due to Money Laundering Regulations your conveyancing lawyer is duty bound to confirm positively your identification when entering into a business relationship with you. It is a criminal offence if your lawyer not do this. If you do not provide ID early in the transaction the solicitor must refuse to act for you. It’s unlikely a lawyer will turn you away if you come to the first meeting without relevant ID but you will have to produce it at some point so you might as well bring it with you to the initial meeting so the lawyer can tick the ID verification box and start sorting out the conveyancing straight away. If you are getting a mortgage, your lawyer also has to check ID documents to satisfy the lender. This is not unique to conveyancing in Bingley
