The solicitor who helped my former purchase has given a fee calculation of £1700 for leasehold conveyancing in Boldon. I am hoping to sell a Georgian property for £300,000. This seems over the top. Is it in excess of what I should be paying for conveyancing in Boldon?

three months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Boldon completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. 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. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one close by in Boldon I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Boldon suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

strictly speaking you are not likely to be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are located in Boldon
I am Googling for Boldon conveyancing quotes online. Can I be assured that all the Boldon practices that are listed on your website are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel?
The law firms on our directory have assured us via an online form that they are on the mortgage company panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the lender panel. To date we have not been informed by either a bank or a member of the public that the data about a specific Boldon firm being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel is incorrect.
