We are planning to acquire a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Kenilworth who is on the TSB approved panel. Can you recommend a local conveyancing firm?

Various internet forums that I have come across warn that are the main cause of delay in Kenilworth house deals. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Kenilworth.
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Kenilworth. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent informed us that the owners will only move forward if we appoint the agent's recommended solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer who is familiar with conveyancing in Kenilworth
It is unlikely the vendors are driving this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to appoint your preferred Kenilworth conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will give the negotiator at the agency a commission or meet his conveyancing targets set by senior management.
I am hoping to put an offer on a small detached house that appears to meet my requirements, at a reasonable figure which is making it all the more appealing. I have subsequently been informed that it's a leasehold rather than freehold. I am assuming that there are particular concerns purchasing a house with a leasehold title in Kenilworth. Conveyancing solicitors have are about to be appointed. Will they explain the issues?
The majority of houses in Kenilworth are freehold and not leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local solicitor who is familiar with the area who can assist with the conveyancing process. It is clear that you are buying in Kenilworth in which case you should be shopping around for a Kenilworth conveyancing solicitor and check that they are used to advising on leasehold houses. First you will need to check the number of years remaining. As a lessee you will not be entirely free to do whatever you want with the house. The lease comes with conditions such as requiring the freeholder’sconsent to carry out changes to the property. You may also be required to pay a contribution towards the maintenance of the estate where the property is part of an estate. Your solicitor will advise you fully on all the issues.
