I am buying a property and need a conveyancing solicitor in Binstead who is on the Norwich and Peterborough Building Society approved. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?

My partner and I are downsizing from our property in Binstead and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any high street Binstead conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a web based conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Binstead. Having lived in Binstead for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified.

The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Binstead ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will refuse to issue a loan on this type of premises.

Developers have put forward a conveyancer and I've received a quote from them. It's nearly £250 less expensive than my preferred Binstead property lawyer. Should I use them?
Housebuilders normally have lists of property lawyers who expedite matters and who know the seller’s paperwork and property lawyer. As many developers offer an incentive to use their approved lawyer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer will not recommend a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they demand an exchange in 28 days. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested conveyancing practitioner is that they may prove hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the housebuilder. If you worry that this may be the situation you should keep with your local Binstead solicitor.
