We selected a Waltham based firm for my conveyancing in Waltham recently. Reviewing the terms of engagement it is apparent thatwe are responsible for fees even if the sale aborts. Would I be best advised to choose an internet lawyer promising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Waltham?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be more expensive to counteract those cases that do not proceed. Do bear in mind that such deals tend not to cover outlay e.g. Waltham conveyancing search costs.
We see that you have a search directory listing firms on the Santander conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a referral fee if I retain them for our conveyancing in Waltham?
We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the Santander conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in Waltham.
I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to appoint their panel solicitor as I would prefer to appoint a local conveyancing solicitor in Waltham?
Do check but the the likelihood is that appoint one of their panel conveyancers where you want the "fee-free" incentive. Speak to the bank to ask if they make available a monetary alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Waltham.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Waltham. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?
In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my business premises in Waltham and how can you help?
The 1954 Act gives protection to business lessees, giving them the legal entitlement to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of the lease term. There are certain specified grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing. Waltham is one of our numerous locations in which the firms we work with are based
I need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor for my conveyancing in Waltham. I happened to discover a site which looks to be the ideal offering If there is a chance to get all the legals completed via phone that would be preferable. Should I be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?
As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
