I have justbeen informed that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Shotton for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 9 months ago. How can I establish that the property is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest way to see if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Shotton conveyancing specialists.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Shotton.

Am I best advised to appoint a Shotton conveyancing solicitor in close proximity to the house I am hoping to buy? We have a good friend who can execute the legal work but they are based a couple of hundredkilometers away.
The benefit of a local Shotton conveyancing practice is that you can visit the firm to execute paperwork, present your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local intelligence which is a plus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If you know people who used your friend and on the whole were impressed that should surpass using an unknown Shotton conveyancing solicitor just because they are Shotton based.
