We are planning on selling our home in Lostwithiel and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any high street Lostwithiel conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers used a factory type conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Lostwithiel. We have lived in Lostwithiel for 4 years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything.

As of today roughly three quarters of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the property thus registration formalities is not typically primary concern but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

Am I better off to instruct a Lostwithiel conveyancing practitioner who is local to the property I am buying? We have a good friend who can handle the legal formalities but her office is 400miles away.
