As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Rothwell what is the number one tip you can give me concerning the legal transfer of property in Rothwell
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Rothwell or throughout is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists lots of room for friction between you and other parties involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the seller, property agent and sometimes your lender. Appointing a lawyer for your conveyancing in Rothwell should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE party in the legal process whose interest is to act in your best interests and to keep you safe.
On occasion a potential adversary may try and persuade you that you should follow their advice. For example, the selling agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your lawyer is dragging his heels. Or your mortgage broker may advise you to do take action that is contrary to your solicitors recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the home moving process.

It best that you discharge the service charge as you normally would as all ground rent and service invoices should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
