We opted for a local solicitor for my conveyancing in Chesterfield last week. Upon checking the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatI am liable for fees even if our purchase doesn't happen. Should I go with them or instruct an internet solicitor practice promising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Chesterfield?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to offset the transactions that do not go ahead. Dont forget that such promotions tend not to protect you from disbursements such your Chesterfield conveyancing search expenses.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one close by in Chesterfield I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Chesterfield for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

Chesterfield conveyancing search fees are disbursements not legal fees as these are paid to independent parties.
