A loan agreement from HSBC for the refinancing of my 3 room maisonette is to be issued by the end of next week. Are you able to recommend a cheap conveyancing practitioner in Boston?
You are on the wrong site if you are in need of the cheapest conveyancing in Boston. Our aim is to provide cost effective conveyancing but we do not advertise as being the cheapest. Avoid the trap of appointing organisations offering £100 conveyancing in Boston. At best, in being led by cheap conveyancing, you will end up with what you pay for and at worst you will end up spending a lot in additional fees and still not end up with the service you were looking for.

How does conveyancing in Boston differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Boston approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because builders in Boston usually buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Boston or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Boston is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Boston are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Boston you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Boston may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

My lawyer (approximately 300 kilometers awayhas requested that I execute a statutory declaration prior to completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing solicitor in Boston to attest this legal document for me?
Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are Boston based
