At what point can the exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Rothley and am I required to be at the lawyers office?
Where you are near to our conveyancing solicitors in Rothley you are invited in to sign the paperwork.

The executing of the purchase agreement is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the firm to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Rothley)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

It has been 4 months since my purchase conveyancing in Rothley took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 residence 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.
