A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

I happen to be the sole beneficiary of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Kingswinford. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in December. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in December. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook instructs conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. How practical a view banks take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this requirement is chiefly there to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.
