Is there a reason to instruct a Hurst conveyancing practice when web based conveyancers are less overpriced?
Its a good idea to get 2 or 3 like-for-like quotes for conveyancing costs in Hurst and you should seek a competitive fee calculation but don’t be focused with sourcing the cheapest Hurst conveyancer.

Our conveyancer has identified a defect with the lease for the flat we are purchasing in Hurst. The seller’s lawyers have put forward defective title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will cover the costs. Our property lawyer says that he must ensure that the lender is happy with this solution. Who is the client here, us or the lender?
Even though you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their requirements for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. You and the bank are the client. These conveyancing instructions have to be complied with.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Hurst is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Hurst are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Hurst you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hurst may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
