Reasons to use our Billericay conveyancing solicitors

  • 1 Retaining the services of a local Solicitor generally results in a more bespoke service. Online forums bear testimony to the idea that in choosing a large conveyancing firm, your transaction is handled by a team of people who who update you by determining whether the ‘computers says no’.
  • 2 Excellent communication and pure property local knowledge are key benefits that you should seek when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Billericay home moves can be made significantly more protracted as a result of lack of transparency between all the parties. The lawyers listed ensure that communication channels are open and act on arising issues and developments instantly.
  • 3 Billericay conveyancing lawyers will have connections at the local Land Registry Office, Local Authority and selling agents
  • 4 The mark of a good conveyancing solicitor in Billericay is quality not quantity. The level of service offered by conveyancing "factories" (sometimes 'recommended' by national chain estate agents) sometimes falls short of the high standards of professionalism you will expect.
  • 5 The companies listed on our directory have a variation of conveyancing solicitors, legal executives and support staff handling over one hundred thousand cases annually.

My business partner and I are looking to take over a lease of an office on the high street. Can you recommend lawyers offering fixed charges for commercial conveyancing in Billericay for under 2k?

Whether you are intending to purchase or sell a shop, pub, restaurant, office, retail unit or a whole business we can find you the right solicitor.

I am employed by a busy estate agency in Billericay where we have witnessed a few leasehold sales jeopardised due to short leases. I have been given conflicting advice from local Billericay conveyancing solicitors. Please can you clarify whether the owner of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or simultaneously with completion of the sale.

An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.

I purchased a basement flat in Billericay, conveyancing formalities finalised 5 years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Equivalent flats in Billericay with over 90 years remaining are worth £206,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 levied per year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2091

With 66 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to span between £12,400 and £14,200 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.

Been searching for a conveyancing practitioner for leasehold sale conveyancing in Billericay. I'm selling, simple no mortgage to pay off, no hurry, currently empty. Got a quote from a lawyer for £1000 including VAT which is a tad steep considering its so straightforward. Is it possible to find less expensive fees for conveyancing in Billericay?

As it’s a sale only, £500 + VAT is likely to be about the best for a Billericay solicitor firm.
