A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

I happen to be the only beneficiary of my late father’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Bramley. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in September. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership will be considered the same way as though I had purchased the property in September. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The CML handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be affected by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this obligation chiefly exists to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of property.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Bramley. I have a mortgage agreed with Aldermore. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
