I am looking for value for money conveyancer. Should I go for for a web based conveyancer rather than a local Cringleford conveyancing solicitor?
Generally conveyancing lawyers in your neck of the woods will have good relationships with your local authority, which can assist with your Cringleford conveyancing searches that your lawyer will require. It can only be a plus if they have existing connections with the Land Registry overseeing your area Cringleford, other conveyancers in the location and Cringleford Estate Agents.
What happens if my solicitor is removed from the Barclays Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Cringleford?
First, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

If flooding has previously occurred and is not disclosed by the vendor, then a purchaser could commence a compensation claim as a result of such an incorrect answer.

We're novice buyers - agreed a price, but the agent informed us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct their preferred lawyers as they need a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Cringleford
It is improbable the sellers are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is going to damage their objectives. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Cringleford conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing thresholds set by corporate headquarters.
