Recently been in touch with my conveyancing solicitor in De Beauvoir Town who conducted the legals 18 months ago requesting a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold property and a freehold premises) of similar values with a loan from TSB. I am now being charged double. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for an alternative conveyancer?
The estimate does seem a little overpriced. If you you were to look around you may be able to decrease the fees marginally by say a hundred pounds.

My flat in De Beauvoir Town is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Will the solicitor have to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently currently.
