I selected a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Brent Park yesterday. Looking through the Terms I notewe are on the hook for fees even if the movedoes not go ahead. Should I go with them or use an internet lawyer offering no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Brent Park?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be higher to cover the conveyances that fail to complete. You should be mindful that these schemes rarely cover outlay such your Brent Park conveyancing search fees.
At what point does exchange of contracts occur in domestic conveyancing in Brent Park and am I required to be at the solicitors office?
If you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Brent Park you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. However, the firms we recommend supply a countrywide conveyancing service and provide just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the conveyancer to officially exchange at the suitable time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Brent Park)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Brent Park I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Brent Park in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
