At what point does exchange of contracts take place for domestic conveyancing in Attleborough and am I required to be at the solicitors office?
If you are near to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Attleborough you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with provide a national conveyancing service and give as equally diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the firm to officially exchange at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Attleborough)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

We had instructed solicitors locally in Attleborough on the Kent Reliance solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me an additional fee for handling the Kent Reliance mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Kent Reliance?

five months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Attleborough completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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'm buying a house in Attleborough. I have found my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't locate my conveyancer's name as listed on the regulator's website. Is this a big problem?
Not all staff in the practice must be listed by the regulator. As long there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the conveyancing, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unlicensed staff.
