I selected a Midhurst based solicitor for my conveyancing in Midhurst last week. Reviewing the small print I seeI am on the hook for charges even if the movefalls through. Should I go with them or appoint an on-line conveyancing company promoting no move no charge conveyancing in Midhurst?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to offset those conveyances that abort. Dont forget that such deals generally do not cover disbursements for example Midhurst conveyancing search fees.

I have paid off my mortgage with Aldermore. I assume I don't need a Midhurst conveyancer on the Aldermore panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Aldermore mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Aldermore mortgage from the register. Aldermore, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Aldermore has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Aldermore has instructed the Land Registry to do so
