We selected a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in St Mary Cray last week. Upon checking the Terms I noteI am responsible for costs even if our purchase doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to select an on-line lawyer advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in St Mary Cray?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to offset the cases that do not go ahead. Do bear in mind that such promotions generally do not protect you from outlay for instance St Mary Cray conveyancing search fees.

How does conveyancing in St Mary Cray differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in St Mary Cray approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because new home sellers in St Mary Cray tend to acquire the real estate, 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 used to new build conveyancing in St Mary Cray or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in St Mary Cray I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in St Mary Cray in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
