It is even conceivable that they may have conducted previoushouses in the same road. Therefore consider using a Undy conveyancing lawyer. Second, be sure that the conveyancing firm is on the member panel. It is claimed that just under twenty per cent of Undy conveyancing transactions are frustrated or derailed after finding out that a purchaser’s conveyancer was not on their mortgage lender’s panel. This can often result in the conveyancing being frustrated by as much as 21 days. It is claimed that this issue impacts approximately 100,000 home moves annually. Many Undy conveyancing firms can not represent certain lenders so do check at the outset.

It has been 4 months since my purchase conveyancing in Undy concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?

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.
I'm buying a new build house in Undy benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it could impact my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
