AssumingI was to acquire a simple residential propertyin Hither Green for cash and have no survey and no local authority searches how much could I expect to have to pay for conveyancing in Hither Green?
Any savings you would gain would be limited to the costs for searches. Your solicitor still got to do everything else - money laundering, correspond with the sellers conveyancing practitioner, SDLT submission, register the property etc. A slight saving might be made by not needing to register a charge however it will not be a lot.
We're in Hither Green, First time buyers purchasing with a mortgage (lender is Virgin Money , and our lawyer is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?
The fact that your lawyer is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no lawyer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.
We previously instructed solicitors located in Hither Green on the Clydesdale solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me a supplemental amount for handling the Clydesdale mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Clydesdale?
Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your solicitor may levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Clydesdale but by your Hither Green conveyancing practitioner. Numerous firms on the Clydesdale panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms incorporate it on their overall fee.

Just acquired a terraced house in Hither Green , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my title? My Hither Green conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are concluded.
As far as conveyancing in Hither Green is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Registration occurs once the new owner has moved in to the property so 'speed' is not always an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
