Recently contacted my conveyancing lawyer in Diss who conducted the legals two years ago and wanted a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold property and a freehold premises) of similar values with a home loan from Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. I am now being charged double. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for an alternative conveyancer?

five months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Diss took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Diss differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Diss approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Diss tend to buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Diss or who has acted in the same development.
