Why do I have to pay up front for my conveyancing in Ardleigh Green?
If you are buying a property in Ardleigh Green your lawyer will ask you to provide them with funds to cover the search fees. This will be the total of the cost of the Local Authority Search.

Various online forums that I have visited warn that are the number one cause of delay in Ardleigh Green house deals. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the top 10 causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are not likely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Ardleigh Green.
3 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Ardleigh Green concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I pay a service charge for my ground floor flat in Ardleigh Green. Due to losing my job and other issues I fell into arrears with remittance. The freeholders agreed a payment schedule but there is still about £3000 currently outstanding.
I am under pressure to dispose of the property and I am concerned this may jeopardize the sale if I have to discharge the arrears first. I'd like to sell up and then pay them back with the completion monies - is this achievable?
Do clarify with the property lawyer carrying out your Ardleigh Green conveyancing but one option may be to arrange for the debt to be passed to the buyers. The contractual price due would be adjusted to reflect the amount of debt they take on. They would then deal with the outstanding monies after completion of the purchase.
