On the day of completion you will not be required to attend the conveyancers office in Wolstanton.

It has been three months following my purchase conveyancing in Wolstanton took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. 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.

As with many professional services, often recommendations from relatives can be extremely useful or valuable. But there are lots of players in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders may recommend conveyancers to choose. Sometimes the conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there is an underlying financial incentive behind the recommendation.
