We went with a local firm for my conveyancing in Castle Eden yesterday. Reviewing the terms of engagement I noteI am liable for charges even where the conveyance does not complete.

It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will generally be more expensive to cover those cases that fail to complete. Do bear in mind that these promotions rarely cover outlay such as Castle Eden conveyancing search fees.
At what point will exchange of contracts happen for purchase conveyancing in Castle Eden and do I need to attend the lawyers office?

A signed contract is necessary for the solicitor to exchange contracts at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Castle Eden)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent advised that the vendor will only move forward if we use their recommended conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Castle Eden
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. Should the vendor require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Castle Eden conveyancing firm - as opposed tothose that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds set by head office.
