We selected a high street solicitor for our conveyancing in West Dean recently. Upon checking the small print I noteI am liable for fees even if our purchase doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to select a web based firm advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in West Dean?

I purchased a freehold premises in West Dean but still pay rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in West Dean and has limited impact for conveyancing in West Dean but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges post 1977.
Old rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be dispensed with completely.
We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would prefer to instruct a West Dean based conveyancing firm?

Some mortgage companies have previously offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near West Dean.
