Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Kenley is more expensive?
The conveyancing costs on a leasehold property in Kenley is often more expensive than on a freehold property. This is because there is an amount of extra time necessary in liaising with the freeholder and managing agents to collate the evidence concerning whether the rent and service charges have been paid and whether there are any major works due in the foreseeable future on repairs or maintenance of the building.

My wife and I are planning on selling our property in Kenley and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using an online conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Kenley. We have lived in Kenley for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. What do they say? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
How does conveyancing in Kenley differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Kenley approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in Kenley usually buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Kenley or who has acted in the same development.
I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for some conveyancing in Kenley. I have chance upon a web site which looks to be the ideal offering If there is a chance to get all this stuff completed via web that would be ideal. Should I be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?
As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
