I opted for a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Haydock last week. Looking through the official terms of business I noteI am responsible for charges even if the movefalls through. Should I go with them or appoint an on-line conveyancing company promising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Haydock?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be higher to counteract the transactions that fail to complete. Dont forget that such schemes generally do not cover disbursements such as Haydock conveyancing search costs.

Just bought a detached house in Haydock , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Haydock conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check the land registry aspects are addressed.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Haydock registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. At present approximately 80% of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Registration is effected after the new owner has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not always primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I’m about to sell my garden apartment in Haydock. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently received a yearly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should pay the invoice as normal because all rents and service invoices should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
