Selecting the right solicitor is the most important decision when it comes to your Biggleswade conveyancing

Logical reasons to let us help you choose a high street conveyancing solicitor in Biggleswade

  • 1 The mark of a good conveyancing solicitor in Biggleswade is quality not quantity. The level of service offered by conveyancing "factories" (sometimes 'recommended' by national chain estate agents) sometimes falls short of the level of professionalism you would hope for.
  • 2 Personal touch and a wealth of local knowledge are key benefits that you should seek when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Biggleswade conveyancing can be made a lot more stressful as a result of lack of transparency between all the parties. The lawyers listed strive to make sure that communication channels are open and act on arising issues and developments expeditiously.
  • 3 Low cost packages from online conveyancers might seem attractive. However, these firms are often based hundreds of miles away with little understanding of the factors that impact property transactions in Biggleswade
  • 4 Biggleswade property lawyers will be familiar with the local Land Registry Office, Local Authority and property agents
  • 5 Biggleswade property lawyers work in conjunction with Biggleswade estate agents, house builders, surveyors, lenders and other professionals to ensure that the highest level of service is provided to buyers and sellers every step of the way, to ensure you’re kept informed as to progress throughout

Do I need to visit the offices of the solicitor to sign the legal charge? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Biggleswade so that I can attend their offices if necessary.

I appreciate that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Do I need chancel insurance when acquiring a property in Biggleswade? or I am told that there is a law dating back centuries that means some homeowners living in a parish church boundary may be liable to contribute towards maintenance towards the chancel within the church. Is this suitable for conveyancing in Biggleswade?

Unless a previous purchase of the property completed post 12 October 2013 you may expect solicitors delivering conveyancing in Biggleswade to remain recommending a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.

How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial property in Biggleswade and how can you help?

The particular law that you refer to affords a safeguard to business leaseholders, granting the legal entitlement to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complex. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing solicitors who use the act for protection and help with commercial conveyancing in Biggleswade

We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent informed us that the vendor will only proceed if we appoint their preferred conveyancers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Biggleswade

It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your preferred Biggleswade conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or hit his conveyancing figures demanded by senior management.

I acquired a property in Biggleswade last 28/5/2024 and to date it is still not registered with HMLR. It was part of a new estate and my lawyer told me that it may take over a year to complete the registration formalities. I have spoken with HMLR directly and they have informed me the original application was cancelled due to questions not being addressed in time. What can I do?
