I opted for a local solicitor for our conveyancing in West Ham yesterday. Looking through the Terms and Conditions it is apparent thatI am responsible for charges even if the dealdoes not happen. Should I go with them or appoint an internet firm offering no completion no charge conveyancing in West Ham?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to neutralise the cases that do not proceed. You should be mindful that such offerings rarely cover expenses e.g. West Ham conveyancing search charges.

If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in West Ham in advance of retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor advised that some lenders tend not give a loan on this type of property.
It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different requirements for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you call us we can look into this further with the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in West Ham. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
