Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers.

three months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Chorleywood and Rickmansworth took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 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 property 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.

I have been recommended by a few selling agents in Chorleywood and Rickmansworth to get a quote from a solicitor using your seach tool. Is there a financial inducement for Estate Agents to promote your lawyers over and above a competitor’s?

We refuse to offer any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers to this site. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

I am thinking of using a web based conveyancing practitioner rather than a Chorleywood and Rickmansworth conveyancing practice. Any advice?
