Having spent time reading online forums for a cheap solicitor in Kemp Town, most post that I must instruct a CQS accredited solicitor. What is CQS?

We are intent on selling our house in Kemp Town and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Kemp Town conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Kemp Town. We have lived in Kemp Town for many years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Kemp Town is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Kemp Town are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Kemp Town you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Kemp Town may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
