It is unwise to serve notice for your lease unless exchange of contracts has taken place. If you have not previously done so, speak to your lawyer and urge them to they cajole the owners solicitors, try to an acceptable time-line that everyone will work towards

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Bushey will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Bushey. The report sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Bushey.
For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Bushey it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately could result in delays to Bushey commercial conveyancing deals as well as pose a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not carried out for residential conveyancing in Bushey.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up as part of conveyancing in Bushey?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Bushey. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
Taking into account that I am about to spend 450k on 3 bedroom house in Bushey I wish to have a conversation with the conveyancer concerning thehome move in advance of instructing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?
This is something that we encourage - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you speaking to the conveyancer who will be doing your conveyancing in Bushey.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is unique person, not a case number. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are quoted for residential conveyancing in Bushey should be the amount on the final invoice that you end up paying.
We're FTB’s - agreed a price, but the estate agent told us that the vendor will only go ahead if we appoint their preferred conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer who is familiar with conveyancing in Bushey
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this request. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to use your own,trusted Bushey conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a commission or hit his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by head office.
