The solicitor who dealt with my former purchase has quoted £1350 for freehold conveyancing in Tibshelf. I am looking to sell a Georgian detached home for £300,000. This seems too much. Is it in excess of what I should be paying for conveyancing in Tibshelf?
The quote is slightly on the expensive side. If you are willing to invest time scrutinising quotes you may be able to get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by say a hundred pounds. That being said, you mightlive to rue choosing an an unknown conveyancer. Don't forget to ensure that the firm can also act for your bank.

My property lawyer in Tibshelf is not listed on the The Royal Bank of Scotland Conveyancing Panel. Can I still continue with my prefered solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the The Royal Bank of Scotland list of approved lawyers?
The limited options available to you here include:
- Carry on with your existing Tibshelf lawyers but The Royal Bank of Scotland will need to use a lawyer on their panel. This will result in additional overall conveyancing charges and result in delays.
- Find a new solicitor to act in the purchase, not forgetting to check they are The Royal Bank of Scotland approved.
- Persuade your The Royal Bank of Scotland solicitor to attempt to join the The Royal Bank of Scotland panel
There are plenty of conveyancing solicitors in Tibshelf but how do I know who I should use?
We would encourage you not to base your choice on the lowest Tibshelf conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of the deal.
My uncle pointed out to me me that in buying a property in Tibshelf there could be various restrictions as to what one can do in terms of external alterations to a property. Is this right?
There are anumerous of properties in Tibshelf which have some sort of restriction or requirement of consent to perform external changes. Part of the conveyancing in Tibshelf should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.
I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, RBS are being pedantic. The Tibshelf solicitor who is on the RBS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but RBS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do RBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that RBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why RBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
