Just contacted my conveyancing lawyer in Denbigh who completed the legal work two years ago and wanted a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of home move (a leasehold residence and a freehold premises) of similar values with a mortgage from National Westminster Bank. I am now being quoted double. Better the devil I know or do I try and find a cheaper online conveyancer?
The estimate does seem a tad on the high side. Where you are content to invest time comparing quotes you may be able to reduce the fees marginally by as much as a hundred pounds.

My aunt passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the house in Denbigh. The house had a relatively small loan left on it of around £5k. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to HSBC, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?
If you plan to re-mortgage then HSBC will insist on your using a conveyancer on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the HSBC mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I'm purchasing my first flat in Denbigh with a loan from Accord Mortgages Ltd. The builders would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my lawyer about the extras as it would affect my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Denbigh is where the house is located. Can you offer any opinion?
Flying freeholds in Denbigh are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Denbigh you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Denbigh may ascertain 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.
Do online conveyancing companies undertake everything a high street Denbigh solicitor does or must I use a solicitor for the final stages for my conveyancing in Denbigh?
