My wife and I are about to complete buying a property in Oxshott but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the seller of £3k taking the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of amending the contract however Aldermore are not allowing this. Should they have been notified?
Your solicitor that is on a Aldermore approved list is required to disclose to Aldermore of any amendments to the sale price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to report the reduction to Aldermore then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Aldermore and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Oxshott.

Just acquired a detached house in Oxshott , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register my proprietorship? My Oxshott conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain that my name is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Oxshott is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any third parties. As of today approximately 80% of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not typically primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
How does conveyancing in Oxshott differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Oxshott approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because new home sellers in Oxshott tend to buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Oxshott or who has acted in the same development.
I was advised by a number of estate agents in Oxshott to locate a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to market your lawyers over a competitor’s?
We don’t make any commission for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
