We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent told us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we use their preferred lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Belgravia

It is highly unlikely the owners are driving this. If they require ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine buyer is not the way to achieve this. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to instruct your preferred Belgravia conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by senior management.

The average costs for the information that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it exceeds £800. The management information fee demanded by the landlord must be sent together with a summary of entitlements and obligations in respect of administration fees, without which the charge is technically not due. In reality you have no choice but to pay whatever is requested of you if you want to sell the property.
