I selected a high street solicitor for my conveyancing in Keighley yesterday. Looking through the small print I seeI am on the hook for costs even if our purchase doesn't happen. Should I ditch them and choose a web based solicitor practice who offer no completion no charge conveyancing in Keighley?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to counteract those conveyances that abort. Do bear in mind that these arrangements tend not to cover expenses for instance Keighley conveyancing search costs.
We are a couple about to sign contracts for a leasehold flat in Keighley. We encountered a snag. Our loan offer with Alliance & Leicester expires on 2/2/2026 but the vendors are putting forward a completion date of 4/2/2026. Can one extend the loan expiry date?
The best person to deal with your issue is your conveyancer who will hopefully determine if he or she is better off negotiating with the bank, vendor’s lawyers, property agents or conceivably all three given the history of your transaction to date.
I am due to move property in March. Will my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Keighley. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen before I stumbled across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the keys from your estate agent but this can only occur after the sellers lawyers inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. You can advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Keighley or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Keighley.
Can I be sure that the Keighley conveyancing solicitor on the Co-operative panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Keighley seeking recommendations is a good start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one which is cheap as chips.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Keighley off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Lloyds. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Lloyds, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Lloyds conveyancing panel.
