Just been in touch with my conveyancing lawyer in Norwood who completed the legal work 18 months ago requesting a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of home move (a leasehold premises and a freehold property) of similar values with a home loan from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. It looks as though am now being quoted double. Should I hunt for a cheaper internet conveyancer?
The estimate does seem a little on the high side. If you you were to look around you may be able to get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by say £125. That being said, if you were satisfied with the assistance the firm gave you couldcome to regret choosing an an untested solicitor. If is important to enquire that the conveyancer can represent Godiva Mortgages Ltd. You can employ our search tool to select a Norwood conveyancing firm on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd conveyancing panel, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Norwood.
The vendors of the house we are hoping to buy have instructed a conveyancing firm in Norwood who has insisted on a lock out contract with a payment 10k. Are such agreements the norm for Norwood conveyancing transactions?
This form of preliminary agreement is unusual in Norwood, conveyancers will often sway clients away from them as they divert attention from the main conveyancing focus and if you end up losing your deposit then the solicitor at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Secondly, there is no assurance that just because the proprietor has signed an exclusivity agreement they will sell to you. They may be in contravention of the agreement if they are offered a big enough financial inducement to do so because a wronged buyer with the benefit of a lockout agreement will still be obliged show losses as a consequence of the breach and this may not equate the extra amount that your seller may secure by breaking the contract, no matter how morally reprehensible it undoubtedly is.
When will exchange of contracts happen for residential conveyancing in Norwood and am I required to attend the conveyancers branch?
Where you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Norwood you are invited in to sign documents. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the conveyancer to officially exchange at the suitable time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Norwood)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

Am I compelled to take this when buying a residence in Norwood? or I am told that there is historic law that means some owners of property residing in a parish church boundary may be liable to contribute towards maintenance towards the chancel within the church.
