I selected a high street firm for our conveyancing in Worplesdon last week. Reviewing the official terms of business I notewe are liable for fees even if the dealdoes not proceed. Would I be best advised to use an internet lawyer promoting no move no charge conveyancing in Worplesdon?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be higher to neutralise those cases that fail to complete. Dont forget that such offerings rarely cover expenditure such your Worplesdon conveyancing search costs.

My uncle passed away 10 months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the house in Worplesdon. The house had a relatively small loan left on it of around £5k. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to TSB, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?
Where you intend to re-mortgage then TSB will insist on your using a conveyancer on the TSB conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your TSB conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the TSB mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
I have been told that property searches are the number one reason for stalling in Worplesdon house deals. Is this right?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published conclusions of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the common causes of hindrances in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to feature in any delay in conveyancing in Worplesdon.
How does conveyancing in Worplesdon differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Worplesdon contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because builders in Worplesdon usually buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Worplesdon or who has acted in the same development.
