Housebuilders frequently have panels of lawyers who are quick and who know the developer’s paperwork and solicitor. As many developers offer an inducement to select their approved conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased charges can be avoided and a developer will not put forward a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing delayed when they want exchange within a tight time frame. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested solicitor is that they may be reluctant to fight for your interests for fear of alienating the developer. If you worry that this may be the case you should keep with your local Droylsden conveyancing practitioner.
