I am in the market for a low cost property lawyer. Should I go for for a national conveyancer rather than a high street Foots Cray conveyancing solicitor?
In the main conveyancing lawyers in your neck of the woods will enjoy strong relationships with your local authority, which can help with the Foots Cray conveyancing searches that your lawyer will need to carry out. It can only be a plus if they enjoy existing relationships with the Local Land Registry Office your area Foots Cray, other property lawyers in the area and Foots Cray property agents.
I am planning to acquire a house and require a conveyancing solicitor in Foots Cray who is on the Platform Home Loans Ltd approved. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?

It has been 4 months since my purchase conveyancing in Foots Cray took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. 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 premises 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.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Foots Cray is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Foots Cray are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Foots Cray you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Foots Cray 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.
My uncle has suggested that I use his conveyancing solicitors in Foots Cray. Do I follow his guidance?
No doubt the ideal way to choose a conveyancing lawyer is to seek referrals from friends or family who have used the solicitor you're considering.
