I chose a high street solicitor for my conveyancing in Earl Shilton recently. Looking through the official terms of business I notewe are responsible for fees even if our purchase aborts. Should I go with them or use a web based firm who offer no completion no charge conveyancing in Earl Shilton?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to offset those transactions that fail to complete. Dont forget that such offerings generally do not cover disbursements for instance Earl Shilton conveyancing search charges.

My wife and I have a 4 bedroom Georgian house in Earl Shilton. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Barclays Direct. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You need to review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Earl Shilton and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent has warned us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Earl Shilton
It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the vendors directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your preferred Earl Shilton conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by corporate headquarters.
