Our intention is to offer affordable conveyancing but our intention is not to advertise as being the cheapest.

The optimum result, in choosing a lawyer for cheap conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst you will end up being stung for additional fees and still not receive the service you were hoping for.
I am the registered owner of a freehold house in Groby but still pay rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Groby and has limited impact for conveyancing in Groby but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of fresh rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Old rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be dispensed with completely.
I am buying my first flat in Groby benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not inform my solicitor about the side-deal as it may affect my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one near me in Groby I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Groby for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
Am I right to be wary about brokers that I am dealing with are recommending a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Groby conveyancing company?
As is the case with many service providers, often input from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are lots of players in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, financial adviser and mortgage companies may suggest lawyers to select. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but occasionally there exists a financial incentive behind the endorsement. You are free to choose your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that some mortgage providers specify a panel list of law firms you have to use for the lender related work in your home move.
