Developers have put forward a solicitor and I've sought a quote from them. It's nearly £300 cheaper than my local Muswell Hill lawyer. Should I use them?

Builders normally have lists of lawyers who are quick and who know the builder's contract and conveyancer. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to choose their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer won't suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they require an exchange inside a month. The argument for not opting for the recommended solicitor is that they may prove hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of upsetting the sellers. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should keep with your local Muswell Hill solicitor.
