We chose a high street solicitor for our conveyancing in Theale today. Upon checking the official terms of business I notewe are liable for fees even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or appoint a web based lawyer advertising no completion no charge conveyancing in Theale?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to counteract the transactions that do not go ahead. Dont forget that such offerings rarely cover expenditure for instance Theale conveyancing search costs.
How up to date is your search tool for Theale conveyancing solicitors on the Lloyds conveyancing panel? Do Lloyds send you an updated list?
Theale conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Lloyds directly.
four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Theale took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 premises 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 Theale differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Theale approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Theale tend to acquire 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Theale or who has acted in the same development.

Why is it not possible to complete our conveyancing in Theale on Good Friday?
This is due to the fact that on completion the money will be transferred electronically between the banks of the buyer and seller's solicitor and at present this can only happen on a business day. It is not possible to complete on a saturday or sunday either.
