There are many firms of conveyancers advertising at first sight what seems to be very low prices. We would encourage you to think twice as to how important this transaction is to you that you are willing to be penny wise pound foolish in relation to the standard of the conveyancing. Many of them list a cheap quote to catch your eye but bury additional charges in the small print..
After reading mumsnet.com for a conveyancing solicitor in Tring, most post that I must instruct a CQS kitemarked solicitor. What is CQS?
The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme is the recognised kitemark for legal experts in the legal transfer of properties, trusted by some of the UK's major lenders. In 2011-12 the Conveyancing Quality Scheme was officially recognised by the Legal Ombudsman. The scheme does not cover licenced conveyancers. Tring is one of the many areas in England and Wales where there are Accredited solicitors.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Tring is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Tring are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Tring you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Tring may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the agent informed us that the vendor will only proceed if we instruct the agent's chosen lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Tring
We suspect that the owner is not behind this request. Should the seller want ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to use your preferred Tring conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a kickback or meet his conveyancing figures demanded by head office.
I wish to sublet my leasehold apartment in Tring. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Do I need to ask my freeholder for their consent?
Your lease governs the relationship between the landlord and you the leaseholder; in particular, it will indicate if subletting is not allowed, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. Most leases in Tring do not prevent an absolute prevention of subletting – such a clause would undoubtedly devalue the property. In most cases there is a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a copy of the tenancy agreement.
