I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Benton and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Benton. Having lived in Benton for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Benton is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Benton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Benton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Benton 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 property.
Do I need to be concerned that 3rd parties that I am dealing with are recommending a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Benton conveyancing practice?
As with lots of professional services, often input from relatives can be extremely useful or valuable. But there are lots of people with a keen interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders might all put forward solicitors to appoint. Sometimes these solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there may be a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to appoint your own lawyer. However, bear in mind that the majority of mortgage providers have an approved list of lawyers you must use for the mortgage aspect of your transaction.
