Having been recommended your site we were about to appoint conveyancing solicitor in Walton on the Naze found using your comparison tool but have come across some other costs illustrations via the web appear less expensive – why is this?
One can find lots of solicitors marketing what appear to be cut price.

Some hide fees deep into the terms of engagement. The law firms that we list for conveyancing in Walton on the Naze will notdo this.
I am selling our property in Walton on the Naze and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed an online conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Walton on the Naze. We have lived in Walton on the Naze for six years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same illness)
I acquired my house on 10 November and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Walton on the Naze advises it would be formalised inside ten days. Are transfers in Walton on the Naze particularly slow to register?

Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry need to notify any third parties. As of today in the region of three quarters of submission are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration takes place once the purchaser is living at the property thus 'speed' is not always primary concern yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
How does conveyancing in Walton on the Naze differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Walton on the Naze approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because developers in Walton on the Naze tend to buy the site, 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 Walton on the Naze or who has acted in the same development.
