I went with a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Littlehampton recently. After carefully reading the fine print it is apparent thatI am responsible for charges even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I ditch them and appoint an internet solicitor practice advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Littlehampton?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the fee levels will generally be higher to counteract the transactions that abort. Do bear in mind that such promotions tend not to cover outlay for example Littlehampton conveyancing search charges.
Are the Littlehampton conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Leeds Building Society?
Littlehampton conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Leeds Building Society directly.
We are aiming to move house in April. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Littlehampton. Conveyancing firm was found before I stumbled across your site.
On the day of completion you can pick up the keys from your property agent however this can only happen once the previous owners conveyancers confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. You will need to inform the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Littlehampton or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Littlehampton.
We are getting the release of further monies on our home loan from Nationwide as we want to carry out renovations to our home in Littlehampton. Are we obliged to appoint a nearby Littlehampton solicitor on the Nationwide conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
Nationwide don't usually require firms on their conveyancing panel to handle the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nationwide list.
After shopping around on the internet I have found a Littlehampton lawyer having checked that they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Yorkshire BS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Yorkshire BS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Littlehampton postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Yorkshire BS, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Littlehampton.

If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases retain a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for £20 inclusive of VAT.
