I hired a Bamburgh based solicitor for my conveyancing in Bamburgh yesterday. Reviewing the fine print I seeI am liable for costs even where the transaction does not complete. Would I be best advised to use an on-line conveyancing brokerage promoting no completion no charge conveyancing in Bamburgh?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to offset those transactions that do not go ahead. You should be mindful that such promotions tend not to cover disbursements such your Bamburgh conveyancing search charges.
Will conveyancers ask for money on account when it comes to conveyancing in Bamburgh?
If you are buying a property in Bamburgh your lawyer will ask you place them with funds to cover the search fees. This will be the total of the cost of the Local Authority Search. If any down payment is payable against the sale price then this will be needed shortly prior to contracts are exchanged. Any further balance that is due should be transferred a few days ahead of the day of completion.
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. Bamburgh is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Bamburgh are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bamburgh you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bamburgh may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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 residence.

I wish to let out my leasehold flat in Bamburgh. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Is permission from the freeholder required?
Even though your last Bamburgh conveyancing solicitor is no longer available you can check your lease to check if you are permitted to let out the premises. The rule is that if the deeds are silent, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you must seek consent from your landlord or some other party in advance of subletting. This means that you cannot sublet without first obtaining permission. The consent is not allowed to be unreasonably withheld. If your lease prohibits you from letting out the property you should ask your landlord for their consent.
