I can see plenty of information on this site about conveyancing in Helston but what is your top tip for choosing the right conveyancer in Helston

We would encourage you not to base your choice on the cheapest Helston conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of time.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Helston. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £200. Not long after, the conveyancer called me to say that they were not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Aldermore panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

Planning on purchasing a apartment in Helston. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Helston property lawyer is on the Principality conveyancing panel.

I am purchasing a property and the solicitor has identified Chancel Repair to which the house may be obligated to pay because it falls into the area of such a church. He has recommended insurance. Is this really required for conveyancing in Helston

Unless a previous acquisition of the house took place post 12 October 2013 you may expect lawyers conducting conveyancing in Helston to continue to advocate a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.

I am buying a new build house in Helston with a mortgage from Nottingham Building Society. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not reveal to my solicitor about this deal as it would impact my loan with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
