Developers have put forward a property lawyer and I've obtained a quote from them. They are almost £400 less expensive than my local Clitheroe lawyer. What's the catch?
Builders frequently have panels of solicitors who are quick and who know the seller’s documentation and solicitor. As many developers offer an incentive to choose a preferred lawyer for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they want exchange in 28 days. The argument for not opting for the suggested lawyer is that they may be hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of upsetting the developer. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should stick with your local Clitheroe solicitor.
