We chose a Addlestone based solicitor for my conveyancing in Addlestone today. Looking through the terms of engagement it is apparent thatwe are on the hook for charges even where the transaction does not complete. Would I be best advised to appoint an on-line conveyancing company promising no completion no charge conveyancing in Addlestone?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be more expensive to cover the cases that do not go ahead. Please beware that these schemes rarely cover outlay such your Addlestone conveyancing search costs.
My husband and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a house in Addlestone and my parents have transferred the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my solicitor needs to disclose this to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I advised the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
Your conveyancing practitioner is legally required to clarify with the bank to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only report this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
It is a dozen years since I purchased my home in Addlestone. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been instructed on the sale but I can't find the deeds. Will this cause complications?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a possibility that the deeds will be retained by the mortgage company or they may be archived with the lawyers who handled the purchase. Secondly in most cases the land will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Addlestone involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Addlestone is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Addlestone are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Addlestone you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
