I instructed a Avery Hill based solicitor for our conveyancing in Avery Hill yesterday. After carefully reading the official terms of business I seeI am on the hook for fees even where the conveyance does not complete. Would I be best advised to appoint a web based lawyer who offer no completion no charge conveyancing in Avery Hill?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to offset those cases that fail to complete. Do bear in mind that such promotions generally do not protect you from expenditure such as Avery Hill conveyancing search fees.
The sellers of the property we are looking to purchase have instructed a conveyancing practitioner in Avery Hill who has suggested a exclusivity contract with a deposit two thousand pounds. Are such arrangements the norm for Avery Hill conveyancing transactions?
Lock out contracts are contracts between a home vendor and purchaser giving the buyer the sole right to purchase the property for a set period of time. For all intents and purposes, an exclusivity is a document stating that you should have a contract at a later time being the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be used for buyer protection though in some cases, the proprietor may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are numerous positives and negatives to using an agreement but you need to check with your lawyer but beware that it may end up costing you extra in conveyancing fees. In light of these reasons these contracts are unusual in relation to conveyancing in Avery Hill.
Me and my brother purchased a terraced Georgian property in Avery Hill. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Barclays Direct. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You need to review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Avery Hill and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the work.

My father has urged me to appoint his lawyers for conveyancing in Avery Hill. Do I follow his advice?
No doubt the ideal way to find a conveyancing lawyer is to get guidance from friends or family who have used the firm you're contemplating using.
My husband and I hope to buy our first house in Avery Hill. Conveyancing lawyer has been appointed. The mortgage adviser suggested that a survey is not necessary as the house is only 17 years old.
At the very least you should have a Home Buyer's Report. As the property was built more than a decade ago the property will not come with a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report could suffice. The report should highlight any apparent issues and recommend further investigation where appropriate. Where there are any indications of material issues obtain a full structural survey.
