It would be unwise to be swayed by the cheapest Park Hill conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with RBS. I assume I don't need a Park Hill conveyancing practitioner on the RBS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your RBS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the RBS mortgage from the register. RBS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where RBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- RBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Should my conveyancer be raising enquiries concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Park Hill.
Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers dealing with homes in Park Hill. Plenty of people will buy a property in Park Hill, completely expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or sell the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Lawyers are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, however there are a various searches that can be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better appreciation of the risks in Park Hill. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a usual inquiry of the seller to determine if the premises has historically flooded. If flooding has previously occurred and is not disclosed by the owner, then a buyer could bring a compensation claim as a result of such an misleading answer. A purchaser’s solicitors may also commission an enviro search. This will indicate if there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries should be initiated.
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Park Hill took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Park Hill differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Park Hill approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because developers in Park Hill tend to buy the land, 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 conveyancers 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 Park Hill or who has acted in the same development.
