I am looking for value for money conveyancer. Do I opt for a web based conveyancer rather than a local Coningsby conveyancing solicitor?
In the main conveyancing solicitors in your location will benefit from strong connections with your local authority, which can help with the Coningsby conveyancing searches that your lawyer will require on your transaction. It can only help if they have good connections with the Land Registry in your area Coningsby, other conveyancers in the location and Coningsby Estate Agents.
I am the registered owner of a freehold premises in Coningsby but still charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Coningsby and has limited impact for conveyancing in Coningsby but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of fresh rentcharges post 1977.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence in 2037 will be extinguished.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Coningsby I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years on the lease.

Should you need a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
