We went with a Fenstanton based solicitor for our conveyancing in Fenstanton yesterday. After carefully reading the Ts and Cs I notewe are liable for costs even if the dealdoes not happen. Should I go with them or select an on-line conveyancing company who offer no move no charge conveyancing in Fenstanton?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to offset the conveyances that abort. You should be mindful that these deals tend not to cover disbursements for instance Fenstanton conveyancing search charges.

How does conveyancing in Fenstanton differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Fenstanton contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because house builders in Fenstanton typically 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Fenstanton or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Fenstanton is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Fenstanton are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Fenstanton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Fenstanton may determine 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 property.
