If you had a top tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Horbury what would it be?
Do not opt for the cheapest Horbury conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers.

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.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Horbury. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Principality have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
