I went with a high street firm for our conveyancing in Ware yesterday. After carefully reading the Terms I seewe are responsible for charges even if the movedoes not proceed. Should I ditch them and select an internet conveyancing company promoting no completion no cost conveyancing in Ware?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will generally be uplifted to neutralise the conveyances that do not go ahead. You should be mindful that these schemes tend not to cover outlay for instance Ware conveyancing search charges.
I require conveyancing for an apartment in a fairly new development (6 years built) in Ware. Almost all the appartments have already been occupied. Do I need carry out the neighbourhood searches as part of conveyancing in Ware?
Where you are obtaining a loan, your bank will need some (many) of the searches so you'll have no choice. If not, then Ware conveyancing searches are optional. Your solicitor, will ’encourage’, perhaps strongly, that you should have the searches done, but he or she is duty bound in this regard. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it may be of interest to your future buyer what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with no practical issues can still throw up adverse search results. But if you insist that your lawyer to proceed without searches then your lawyer will have to follow your instructions or it may be necessary to instruct a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Ware.
I need some expedited conveyancing in Ware as I am faced with a deadline to exchange contracts within one month. A mortgage is not required. Can I escape the need for conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

With lots of history conveyancing in Ware the following are instances of what can crop up and adversely affect the marketability of the property: Refused Planning Applications, Outstanding Fees, Overdue Grants, Road Schemes,...
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Ware I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Ware in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Ware. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and most are in Ware - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

How much is the ground rent and service charge? Are there any major works in the planning that will likely add a premium to the service fees?
My property lawyer in Ware has requested from me proof of ID documents asserting that this is part of his requirements as a conveyancer on the bank Conveyancing panel. Is this right?
Due to Money Laundering Regulations your conveyancing lawyer is duty bound to confirm positively your identification when entering into a business relationship with you. It is a criminal offence if your lawyer not do this. If you do not provide ID early in the transaction the solicitor must refuse to act for you. It’s unlikely a lawyer will turn you away if you come to the first meeting without relevant ID but you will have to produce it at some point so you might as well bring it with you to the initial meeting so the lawyer can tick the ID verification box and start sorting out the conveyancing straight away. If you are getting a mortgage, your lawyer also has to check ID documents to satisfy the bank. This is not unique to conveyancing in Ware
