I selected a St Mary Cray based firm for our conveyancing in St Mary Cray yesterday. Looking through the official terms of business I seewe are liable for charges even if the sale doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to choose an internet firm promoting no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in St Mary Cray?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be more expensive to counteract the transactions that do not proceed. Do bear in mind that such promotions rarely protect you from expenses such as St Mary Cray conveyancing search expenses.

I am helping my sister sell her house in St Mary Cray. Does the conveyancing solicitor arrange the energy assessment or do I organise this?
Following the demise of HIPs, energy assessments was left as a compulsory element of moving house. An energy assessment needs to be commissioned in advance of the property being marketed. This is not a task that solicitors normally organise. Where you are instructing a St Mary Cray conveyancing practitioner they may be willing to arrange EPC’s given their contacts with reputable local energy assessors
We previously chose conveyancers located in St Mary Cray on the Virgin Money solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a further charge for dealing with the Virgin Money mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Virgin Money?
Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your property lawyer is entitled to levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Virgin Money but by your St Mary Cray conveyancer. Numerous firms on the Virgin Money panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, RBS are being problematic. The St Mary Cray solicitor who is on the RBS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but RBS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do RBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that RBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why RBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
