I require conveyancing for a flat in a fairly new development (seven years built) in Brompton. The vast majority the flats have already been disposed of. Do I need carry out the conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Brompton?
You would be opening yourself up to an unnecessary risk in refusing to carrying out Brompton conveyancing searches. Without searches you have no clarity over flooding, environmental etc which may mean you walk away due to potential problems down the line. If you are buying without a mortgage there is no legal necessity to have them, but we would strongly advise in no uncertain terms that you have them. Where accelerating the process and cost are primary issues you should consider with your solicitor about the possibility of search insurance
At what point will exchange of contracts take place for sale conveyancing in Brompton and am I required to be at the conveyancers branch?
Where you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Brompton you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. That being said, the law practices we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract is necessary for the firm to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Brompton)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Brompton I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Brompton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
I am due to review quotes for conveyancing in Brompton from three lawyer and appoint one. Am I right to ask them to sit tight until I I have my bid accepted on a apartment.
