I am selling our home in Barkingside and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers used a factory type conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Barkingside. We have lived in Barkingside for many years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything.

Am I best advised to instruct a Barkingside conveyancing lawyer who is local to the property I am hoping to buy? I have an old university friend who can deal with the legal work but they are based 400kilometers drive away.
The primary upside of using a high street Barkingside conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to execute paperwork, hand in your ID and pester them where appropriate. Having local Barkingside know how is a bonus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and the majority were happy that should outweigh using an unknown Barkingside conveyancing solicitor just because they are Barkingside based.
