Our family solicitor has quoted £1400 for fixed fee conveyancing in Deepcar. I am looking to sell a Edwardian house for £275,000. This appears overpriced. Is it above the norm for conveyancing in Deepcar?
The costs illustration is fractionally on the high side. If you shop around you might trim some of the expense by as much as £125. That being said, you couldcome to rue choosing an a cheaper solicitor. Remember to ensure the solicitor can act for your bank.

We are nearing an exchange on a flat in Deepcar and my mum and dad have transferred the ten percent deposit to my property lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the mortgage company regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
Your conveyancing practitioner is legally required to check with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your bank if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
Completed the sale of my flat in Deepcar last January yet the purchaser is calling me complaining that his conveyancer is waiting to hear from mine. What should have happened following completion?
Following your sale your lawyer should deliver the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. If applicable, your solicitor must also confirm that the home loan has been paid off to the buyers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion tasks specific conveyancing in Deepcar.
I am intent on selling our home in Deepcar and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Deepcar conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using an internet conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Deepcar. We have lived in Deepcar for many years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same illness)
I have recentlyfound out that Stirling Law have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Deepcar for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 9 months ago. How can I check that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest method to check if the property is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Deepcar conveyancing specialists.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Deepcar is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Deepcar are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Deepcar you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Deepcar may decide 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 residence.
