I instructed a local solicitor for my conveyancing in Isle of Dogs today. Reviewing the terms of engagement I seeI am responsible for costs even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I go with them or use a web based firm offering no move no charge conveyancing in Isle of Dogs?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the fee levels will generally be more expensive to counteract the cases that do not proceed. Do bear in mind that these arrangements tend not to protect you from outlay such as Isle of Dogs conveyancing search costs.
We are a couple about to exchange contracts for a ground floor flat in Isle of Dogs. We encountered a problem. The loan offer with Nottingham Building Society expires on 13/6/2024 but the vendors are insisting on a completion date of 17/6/2024. Is it possible to extend the mortgage offer?
The person best placed to address this issue is your solicitors who is in a position to determine whether he or she is corresponding with the mortgage broker, seller’s solicitors, estate agents or indeed all parties based on what has gone on in your transaction as of today.
I am selling our house in Isle of Dogs and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers used a nationwide conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Isle of Dogs. We have lived in Isle of Dogs for 4 years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)

I am seeking to buy a repression property in Isle of Dogs and the vendor would like to complete within 28 days. Do lawyers meet that timeframe? Would it be better to select a high street Isle of Dogs firm or an online conveyancer that professes to offer speedy conveyancing?
Attend your Isle of Dogs shopping parade. Pop in to a couple of solicitor’s offices and request to talk to a conveyancing solicitor for a quote. Discuss your situation and get assurances on time frames. Choose the one that comes across as most genuine. Make sure to select a solicitor on the panel of conveyancers approved by your lender.
