I instructed a Cookley based firm for my conveyancing in Cookley last week. Reviewing the official terms of business I noteI am responsible for charges even if the dealdoes not proceed. Should I go with them or instruct an internet conveyancing company advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Cookley?

My home in Cookley is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Does my conveyancer have to be on the TSB conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the TSB conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off.

We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Cookley conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will provide the estate agent a kickback or meet his conveyancing thresholds demanded by corporate headquarters.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Cookley. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.

If the lease is registered - and most are in Cookley - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title.
