At what point does exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Cheetham Hill and am I required to attend the conveyancers branch?
If you are round the corner to our conveyancing solicitors in Cheetham Hill you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend offer a nationwide conveyancing service and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The signing of the purchase agreement is not the point of no return. A signed contract is necessary for the firm to exchange contracts when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Cheetham Hill)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

The fact that your lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no lawyer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

3 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Cheetham Hill took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
