Just been in touch with my conveyancing solicitor in England Springs who acted for me 18 months ago and wanted a conveyancing costs illustration based on an identical type of home move (a leasehold premises and a freehold premises) of almost identical values with a mortgage from Accord Mortgages Ltd. It looks as though am now being charged double. Stick with what I know or should I try and find an alternative property lawyer?
The estimate does seem a tad on the high side. If you are willing to expend time contrasting quotes you may be able to shave off some of the cost by say £125. On the other hand, if you were satisfied with the legal work the firm offered you couldcome to rue choosing an an untested conveyancer. Don't forget to be sure that the firm can also act for Accord Mortgages Ltd.

I am purchasing a house mortgage free in England Springs. I have been residing for the last twelve years in England Springs. Conveyancing searches are expensive. Given that I have knowledge of the area and road very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a home loan, then almost all of the England Springs conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your conveyancer will 'advise', no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but he is duty bound to do this. One thing to consider; if you are intend to dispose of the house at a future date, it will likely be be of relevance to your prospective purchaser what the searches contain. Sometimes houses with day to day issues can still throw up adverse search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in England Springs should be able to give you some sensible advice in this regard.

I have paid off my mortgage with Aldermore. I assume I don't need a England Springs conveyancer on the Aldermore panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Aldermore mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Aldermore mortgage from the register. Aldermore, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Aldermore has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Aldermore has instructed the Land Registry to do so
