Developers have suggested I use a lawyer and I've sought an estimate from them. It's nearly £300 cheaper than my family Merton Park lawyer. What's the catch?
Developers often have lists of lawyers who expedite matters and who know the builder's paperwork and conveyancer. As many developers offer an incentive to choose a preferred conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased charges can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they need an exchange within a tight deadline. The argument for not opting for the suggested property lawyer is that they may be unwilling to fight for your interests at the risk of upsetting the sellers. If you worry that this may be the situation you should stick with your high street Merton Park conveyancing practitioner.
