What is the first thing I need to know concerning purchase conveyancing in Ferring and Goring?
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Ferring and Goring or throughout West Sussex is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of opportunity for conflict between you and other parties involved in the house moving process. For instance, the seller, selling agent and sometimes a lender. Selecting a law firm for your conveyancing in Ferring and Goring should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY party in the legal process whose interest is to protect your best interests and to protect you.
On occasion a potential adversary will attempt to convince you that you should follow their advice. For instance, the property agent may claim to be assisting by suggesting your lawyer is wrong. Or your financial adviser may tell you to do something that is contrary to your lawyers advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

My mother and father cant seem to find their Ferring and Goring property on the HM Land Registry site. They have a vague memory fifty years ago when they acquired the bungalow there were complications with the post code not being identified on some systems.
The vast majority of premises in Ferring and Goring should be revealed. Have you limited your search with simply the postcode. Normally it should mention all the houses and flats inside the postcode. Where registered it will show up with a title number. Where they bought fifty years ago it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The property may still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title documentation which may be with your parent’s mortgage company.
