My friend's brother is a property lawyer. I anticipate that I will be offered preferential pricing for conveyancing, However if that does not come through, what level of figure would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Blaenau Ffestiniog?

4 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Blaenau Ffestiniog took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Blaenau Ffestiniog is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

We're first time buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent has warned us that the seller will only issue a contract if we appoint the agent's chosen conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Blaenau Ffestiniog
We suspect that the seller is not behind this ultimatum. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the owners directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to appoint your preferred Blaenau Ffestiniog conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by senior management.
