I am due to complete on the purchase of a house in Oswestry but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the current proprietors in the sum of £3k taking the form of a adjustment in the price.

At what point can the exchange of contracts occur in purchase conveyancing in Oswestry and am I required to be at the solicitors office?
If you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Oswestry you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. However, the firms we work with offer a nationwide conveyancing service and provide just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not the important part. A signed contract is necessary for the solicitor to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Oswestry)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
