The conveyancer who assisted with my previous purchase has sent a quote for £1150 for no completion no fee conveyancing in Hedge End. I am looking to sell a Edwardian property for £200,000. This appears expensive. Is it in excess of the average fee for conveyancing in Hedge End?
The estimate does seem a tad overpriced. If you shop around you could decrease the fees slightly by as much as £100 plus VAT. That being said, you couldcome to regret choosing an an untested lawyer.

I have a semi-detached Georgian house in Hedge End. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Nottingham Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Hedge End 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 check the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who carried out the work.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Hedge End I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Hedge End in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
