I went with a high street firm for our conveyancing in Low Moor today. Looking through the fine print it is apparent thatI am liable for costs even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I ditch them and use a web based conveyancing brokerage advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Low Moor?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to counteract those cases that fail to complete. Please beware that these schemes generally do not protect you from outlay such as Low Moor conveyancing search fees.

The management company has quoted £312 for Landlord’s certificate, insurance certificate and 3 years service charge statements. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge an administration fee for a leasehold conveyance in Low Moor?
Low Moor conveyancing on leasehold apartments normally requires the buyer’s conveyancer sending enquiries for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is not legally bound to address such questions the majority will be content to assist. They may charge a reasonable charge for responding to enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average costs for the paperwork that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some cases it exceeds £800. The management information fee demanded by the landlord must be sent together with a synopsis of rights and obligations in respect of administration charges, otherwise the charge is technically not due. Reality however dictates that you have no option but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to exchange contracts with the buyer.
I invested in buying a studio flat in Low Moor, conveyancing having been completed April 2002.

We are midway through purchasing a residence in Low Moor. Conveyancing solicitor has told us the property is "Leasehold". Will this likely adversely affect our Santander valuation?
Low Moor conveyancing does not ordinarily involve leasehold houses. The crucial factor here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If it's 999 years with a peppercorn rent, it's essentially freehold, so it’s unlikely to affect the value significantly.
At the other end of the spectrum, if it's, say, fifty five years it will have a adverse impact on the saleability, and most likely wouldn't be mortgageable. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be set out in the lease to be supplied to your conveyancing practitioner.
