I am in the market for a low cost property lawyer. Should I go for for a nationwide conveyancer or a family Crowle conveyancing lawyer?
Generally conveyancing lawyers in your location will enjoy excellent connections with your local authority, which could help with the Crowle conveyancing searches that your conveyancer will require on your transaction. It also helps if they enjoy good relationships with the Land Registry covering your area Crowle, other property lawyers in the area and Crowle Estate Agents.
Me and my partner are buying a house in Crowle. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a lawyer? On completion day we will need to send our life savings into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
My wife and I have organised a further advance on our home loan from Kent Reliance as we wish to conduct alterations to our property in Crowle. Do we need to choose a bricks and mortar Crowle solicitor on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Kent Reliance don't usually instruct firms on their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel.
We were going to get a DIP from Lloyds this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Lloyds recommend any Crowle solicitors on the Lloyds conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Crowle solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Lloyds through the process.
I need some expedited conveyancing in Crowle as I am under an ultimatum to complete in less than 4 weeks. Luckily I do not require a mortgage. Is it possible to avoid the conveyancing searches to save fees and time?
As you are not obtaining a mortgage you are at free not to have searches carried out although no solicitor would advise that you don't. Drawing on our experience of conveyancing in Crowle the following are instances of what can show up and therefore affect the marketability of the property: Refused Planning Applications, Outstanding Fees, Overdue Grants, Road Schemes,...
I used Stirling Law several years ago for my conveyancing in Crowle. Now, I need the documents however the law firm has closed. What do I do?

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Crowle I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Crowle in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years may be problematic. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
