Developers have put forward a property lawyer and I've obtained an estimate from them. They are nearly £400 cheaper than my family Uxbridge property lawyer. Should I use them?
Housebuilders frequently have lists of lawyers who are quick and who know the seller’s paperwork and conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to choose a preferred conveyancer for this reason, any increased charges can be avoided and a builder will not suggest a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they want exchange in 28 days. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the suggested conveyancing practitioner is that they may be hesitant to 'push' your interests for fear of upsetting the housebuilder. If you worry that this may be the case you should remain with your high street Uxbridge conveyancing practitioner.
