My best friend’s brother is a conveyancing practitioner. I am hopeful that I'll be able to get friends and family pricing for conveyancing, However if that does not come through, what kind of figure should I be paying for conveyancing in Cradley Heath?
It’s prudent to obtain two or three conveyancing quotes. Do use our comparison tool on this page. The estimates may vary but service levels do are distinct between conveyancers as is the case with the vast majority of professional services.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Cradley Heath I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Cradley Heath in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you require a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
I have been pointed in your direction by a number of selling agents in Cradley Heath to get a quote from a solicitor on your site. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to recommend your site over and above a competitor’s?
We refuse to give any financial incentive for sending work our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee as home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
My fiance and I are buying a 2 room apartmentin Cradley Heath with a loan from a mortgage company. We have selected a solicitor in Cradley Heath but our bank advise she’s not listed on their "panel". Apparently we need to choose from the our bank panel solicitors or stay with our Cradley Heath solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent our bank. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The bank home loan offered to you is subject to conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank's conveyancing panel. in the past, most banks had open panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Cradley Heath : a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
