My previous conveyancer has sent a quote for £1200 for freehold conveyancing in Denham. I am hoping to sell a Edwardian detached home for £250,000. Are the quoted fees excessive? Is it above the norm for conveyancing in Denham?
The charges are a tad high. Where you are willing to expend time scrutinising charges you could shave off some of the expense by say £125. That being said, you mightcome to rue opting for an an unknown conveyancer. If is important to enquire the solicitor can also act for your lender.

Denham is one of the numerous areas of the UK where there are CQS lawyers.

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. 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. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?
I have been pointed in your direction by two or three local selling agents in Denham to locate a conveyancer using your seach tool. What’s the financial inducement for Estate Agents to recommend your site over and above alternative conveyancing organisations?
