At what point will exchange of contracts take place for residential conveyancing in Oakleigh Park and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
If you are near to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Oakleigh Park you are welcome to come in to sign the paperwork. However, the firms we work with offer a national conveyancing service and provide just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the property agreement is not the point of no return. A signed contract simply enables the solicitor to address the formalities at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Oakleigh Park)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

I am planning to move house in October. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Oakleigh Park. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen prior to coming across your website.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the keys from the property agent however this should only occur after the previous owners solicitors advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. After that you should tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to recommend a particular removal company but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in Oakleigh Park or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Oakleigh Park.

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Oakleigh Park. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £150. A few days later, the property lawyer contacted me to say that they were not on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Skipton panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
four months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Oakleigh Park completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
