Having been referred to your organisation we were going to go ahead with a conveyancing solicitor in Lyddington recommended on your site but have come across some other fee calculations on the internet look less expensive – how come?

There are many firms of conveyancing organisations promoting self styled £99 conveyancing, but extrafees end up with the closing invoice being escalated. According to the Legal Ombudsman costs listed in terms of engagement should be equitable invoiced The conveyancers that we put forward for conveyancing in Lyddington clearly state all legal fees for a standard conveyancing transaction.

Finally the sale completed on my house in Lyddington last July but my buyer keeps telephoning daily to say their lawyer needs to hear from mysolicitor. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?

After completion of your sale your conveyancer is obliged to send the transfer deeds and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your solicitor must also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been paid off to the buyers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion steps just for conveyancing in Lyddington.

Various online forums that I have come across warn that are the primary reason for stalling in Lyddington house deals. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published conclusions of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the most frequent causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Lyddington.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Lyddington. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Lyddington

If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Please supply a car parking plan.

I was advised by a few estate agents in Lyddington to select a property lawyer using your seach tool. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your lawyers over another?

We don’t give any referral fee for sending work our way. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission as home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
