I opted for a local lawyer for my conveyancing in Lambeth last week. Going through the official terms of business I noteI am liable for fees even if the sale doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to instruct a web based lawyer who offer no completion no charge conveyancing in Lambeth?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will generally be uplifted to counteract those conveyances that do not proceed. Dont forget that these arrangements rarely protect you from expenses by way of example Lambeth conveyancing search expenses.
It is 10 years ago since I bought my house in Lambeth. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been appointed on the sale but I am unable to track down the title deeds. Will this cause complications?
You need not be too concerned. First there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by your mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who oversaw your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring current official copies of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Lambeth relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is not registered it is more of a problem but is not insurmountable.
Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that may affect a commercial land in Lambeth?
Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Lambeth will perform a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers invest in researching accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Lambeth. The search result provides definitive information on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Lambeth.
For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Lambeth it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. Failure to identify developments where adoption procedures have not been addressed adequately could result in delays to Lambeth commercial conveyancing transactions as well as pose a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not ordered for residential conveyancing in Lambeth.

We expect to complete the disposal of our £425,000 garden flat in Lambeth next Wednesday. The freeholder has quoted £324 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and 3 years service charge statements. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge exorbitant fees for a leasehold conveyance in Lambeth?
Lambeth conveyancing on leasehold apartments usually necessitates the buyer’s lawyer submitting enquiries for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is not legally bound to address these enquiries the majority will be content to do so. They are at liberty to invoice a reasonable administration fee for responding to questions or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it exceeds £800. The administration charge required by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of entitlements and obligations in relation to administration fees, otherwise the invoice is not strictly payable. Reality however dictates that you have no option but to pay whatever is requested of you if you want to exchange contracts with the buyer.
