I instructed a Whissendine based solicitor for my conveyancing in Whissendine last week. Going through the Terms I noteI am liable for fees even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I ditch them and appoint an on-line conveyancing company promoting no completion no charge conveyancing in Whissendine?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will generally be more expensive to cover those conveyances that do not proceed. Please beware that these schemes generally do not protect you from expenses e.g. Whissendine conveyancing search expenses.

I would like to let out my leasehold flat in Whissendine. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Do I need to ask my freeholder for their consent?
Notwithstanding that your last Whissendine conveyancing solicitor is no longer around you can check your lease to see if you are permitted to let out the premises. The accepted inference is that if the deeds are non-specific, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you must obtain permission from your landlord or other appropriate person in advance of subletting. This means that you cannot sublet in the absence of prior permission. Such consent should not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease does not allow you to sublet you should ask your landlord for their consent.
