Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Brompton?
If you are buying a property in Brompton your solicitor will ask you put them with monies to cover the search fees. Ordinarily this is asked for to cover the fees of the Local Authority Search. When the down payment is as part of the total price then this should be needed immediately ahead of contracts are exchanged. Any further balance that is needed will be payable shortly before completion.
I have been told that property searches are a common cause of delay in Brompton conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the most frequent causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Local searches are unlikely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Brompton.

Developers have recommended to me a conveyancer and I've sought an estimate from them. It's nearly £250 less expensive than my local Brompton property lawyer. What's the catch?
Housebuilders normally have panels of conveyancers who are quick and who know the developer’s documentation and property lawyer. As many developers offer an incentive to select a preferred property lawyer for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a developer will not suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing delayed when they need an exchange within a tight deadline. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested conveyancing practitioner is that they may be unwilling to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the sellers. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should keep with your local Brompton solicitor.
