I am expecting a mortgage offer from Halifax. I hope to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Dulverton. Does the Halifax Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Halifax conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
I own a freehold house in Dulverton but still charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Dulverton and has limited impact for conveyancing in Dulverton but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges post 1977.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be dispensed with completely.
Should commercial conveyancing searches disclose proposed roadworks that may affect a commercial property in Dulverton?
Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Dulverton will perform a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers spend in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Dulverton. The search result sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Dulverton.
For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Dulverton it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately could result in delays to Dulverton commercial conveyancing transactions as well as present a risk to future plans for the site. These searches are not carried out for residential conveyancing in Dulverton.

I need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor for my conveyancing in Dulverton. I've stumble across a web site which seems to have the ideal answer If it is possible to get all this stuff done via web that would be preferable. Do I need to 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?
We are considering using an online conveyancing practitioner as opposed to a Dulverton conveyancing firm. Any advice?
Advantages do exist in having the opportunity to pop in to a local Dulverton conveyancing solicitor such as
