My previous lawyer has sent a quote for £1200 for leasehold conveyancing in Chiseldon. I am looking to sell a purpose built detached home for £125,000. Is this expensive? Is it in excess of what I should be paying for conveyancing in Chiseldon?

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel conveyancer as I would much rather use a Chiseldon based conveyancing firm?
You should check but the the probability is that appoint one of their panel solicitors should you take up the "fee-free" deal. Call the lender and check if they offer you a monetary alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Chiseldon.

How does conveyancing in Chiseldon differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Chiseldon contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because new home sellers in Chiseldon usually purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Chiseldon or who has acted in the same development.
