Flying freeholds in Church End are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Church End you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Church End may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Having local Church End know how is a plus. However it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job.

Developers have suggested I use a conveyancing practitioner and I've sought an estimate from them. They are nearly £250 cheaper than my own Church End conveyancer. Should I use them?

Housebuilders often have panels of property lawyers who are quick and who know the builder's paperwork and solicitor. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to use their approved conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer will not suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing delayed when they require an exchange inside a month. A counter-argument for not opting for the suggested conveyancer is that they may prove unwilling to fight for your interests at the risk of upsetting the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should keep with your local Church End conveyancer.
