I was recommended to a lawyer who has sent a quote for just over a thousand pound for no sale no fee conveyancing in Woodborough. I’m looking to sell a Georgian house for £200,000. Is this overpriced? Is it above what I should be paying for conveyancing in Woodborough?
The estimate does seem a tad overpriced. If you are willing to expend time scrutinising costs you might decrease the fees slightly by say a hundred pounds.

is it true that all Woodborough solicitor practices on the Barclays conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Barclays approved list of solicitors they would need to be overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority.

About to purchase flat in Woodborough. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Woodborough lawyer is on the Skipton conveyancing panel.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one close by in Woodborough I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Woodborough suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
