We went with a local lawyer for our conveyancing in Haywards Heath recently. Reviewing the Terms it is apparent thatI am responsible for fees even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I go with them or select a web based solicitor practice advertising no completion no charge conveyancing in Haywards Heath?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be more expensive to offset the conveyances that abort. You should be mindful that such offerings tend not to cover expenditure by way of example Haywards Heath conveyancing search charges.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Haywards Heath I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Haywards Heath suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

The primary upside of using a high street Haywards Heath conveyancing practice is that you can drop in to sign paperwork, present your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local knowledge which is a plus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have instructed your friend and the majority were impressed that must outweigh using an unknown Haywards Heath conveyancing lawyer just because they are local.

I'm remortgaging a property in Haywards Heath. I can find my conveyancer's company on the Law Society's list, but I can't see my conveyancer's name on the list. Is this a big problem?

Not every individual in the company must be listed by the regulator. Provided there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the work, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unqualified staff.
