As someone with no idea as to conveyancing in Bosham what is your top tip you can give me for the legal transfer of property in Bosham

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Bosham or throughout West Sussex is often a confrontational experience. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists lots of room for confrontation between you and others involved in the house moving process. For example, the vendor, selling agent and even potentially your bank.

Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Bosham.

It has been five months since my purchase conveyancing in Bosham completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
