Recently contacted my conveyancing lawyer in Beckermet who conducted the legals two years ago and wanted a conveyancing costs illustration based on the same type of house move (a leasehold premises and a freehold premises) of similar values with a home loan from Barclays . It looks as though am now being quoted twice the amount. Stick with what I know or should I try and find an alternative conveyancer?

The estimate does seem a tad overpriced. If you shop around you could trim some of the expense by as much as £100 plus VAT.

I am getting closer to an exchange on a flat in Beckermet and my parents have transferred the 10% deposit to my solicitor. I am now advised that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I informed the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

Your property lawyer is legally required to clarify with the bank to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Beckermet?

Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Beckermet your lawyer will request that you to provide them with funds to cover the search fees. Ordinarily this is needed to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. When the down payment is payable against the total price then this should be needed immediately before exchange of contracts. The closing balance that is needed should be transferred a few days ahead of the completion date.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and found one close by in Beckermet I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Beckermet for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a home loan that many years will be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

I need to find a conveyancing solicitor for freehold conveyancing in Beckermet. I have stumble across a site which looks to be the perfect answer If there is a chance to get all this stuff done via phone that would be preferable. Should I be wary? What should out be looking out for?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
