My friend's step-father is a property lawyer. I hope that I'll be able to get friends and family rates for conveyancing, but if not, what kind of costs would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in New Mills?
Do contrast pricing. Do use our comparison tool on this page. Whilst estimates do be different but service levels do are distinct between property lawyers as is the case with most professions.
I have been recommended a conveyancing solicitor in New Mills. I I am struggling to find out whether they are on the Yorkshire Building Society conveyancing panel. Could you advise?
The first thing you should do is e-mail the conveyancer and enquire if they are on the lender panel. Alternatively you can call Yorkshire Building Society who may be able to help.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. New Mills is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in New Mills are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside New Mills you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in New Mills may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
I'm converting the mortgage on my current house to a BTL mortgage with Barclays Direct and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on further property. The neighborhood we are looking at is New Mills. Will your conveyancers be able to act for the two mortgage companies and link together the conveyances?
Make use of our search tool on this site to be sure that the lawyers are approved by both mortgage companies. On the basis that they are the conveyancer should be able to tie up the two conveyancing matters but you should have a chat with you lawyer and specify your expectations and requirements.
