Recently been in touch with my conveyancing solicitor in Elland who conducted the legals 18 months ago requesting a conveyancing quote based on the same type of home move (a leasehold residence and a freehold property) of almost identical values with a home loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. I am now being charged double. Stick with what I know or do I seek out a cheaper online conveyancer?

The vendors of the home we are purchasing have appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Elland who has insisted on a lock out contract with a down payment 6,000. Are such contracts promoted for Elland conveyancing transactions?
There are two main drawbacks with signing a lock out contract (also known as an exclusivity agreement) is that it takes away the focus from progressing with the conveyancing transaction itself, so unless it requires limited or no negotiation then it could transpire to be unhelpful. It is not strongly advocated amongst Elland conveyancing practitioners as a result. A further negative is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved buyer should not expect to secure an injunction to prohibit the seller disposing of the property to an alternative purchaser, so the only remedy open via the agreement will be the recovery of abortive charges and, in rare circumstances, the additional payment of penalties.

I acquired my house on 7 June and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Elland advises it would be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in Elland uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Elland is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd parties. Currently approximately three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the premises thus an expedited registration is not always top priority but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

Sixweeks into buying a house in Elland. Conveyancing lawyer has phoned to say the property is "Leasehold". Should this make a difference on the marketability of the house?
Elland conveyancing does not ordinarily involve leasehold houses. The crucial consideration here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a peppercorn rent, it's essentially freehold, so it shouldn't impact the value too much.
At the other end of the spectrum, if it's, say, Sixty years it is bound to have a adverse impact on the value, and most likely wouldn't be mortgageable. The length of lease and ground rent will be specified in the lease provided to your conveyancing practitioner.
