Q.

How do we find a cheap solicitor to buy a house?

A.

This affects many buyers who opted for a very cheap quote, only to be stung later in the conveyancing process, and many property lawyers purport to offer supposedly 'the cheapest conveyancing quotes'. However extra charges may increase the final invoice. Any additional fees found in the small print needs to be fair and come into force only if the lawyer must complete unanticipated additional work , which could not be anticipated at the start of the process. Any disbursements to be paid should also be clearly stated on any quote for conveyancing in BedfordshireHomeward Legal quotes are not estimates, and offer a clear statement of your legal fees for a standard conveyancing transaction.

Q.

In about 6 weeks we are likely to be finally moving from our terraced building near Bedfordshire into a property in Essex . What is the optimum stage to appoint a home removal company?

A.

The ideal point is for buyers to hold off agreeing a removal firm until such time as you and the other side has confirmed an absolute home moving date that takes place following shortly after when contracts have exchanged. Usually residential removals firms will impose a cancellation payment . Local information can be sought from S & S Removals, 89 Aylesbury Road, Bedford, MK41 9RQ Phone: 0808 155 7841.

Q.

Do your solicitors carry out residential property auction conveyancing in Bedfordshire?

A.

Our solicitors and licensed conveyancers in Bedfordshire frequently handle the legal work for buyers at auction. Our auction team solicitors have acted for countless bidders at local residential property auctions, for example Acuitus, Allsop (Commercial), Allsop (Residential), Auction House London, Award Property, Barnett Ross, Baxtons, Brendons Auctioneers, Countrywide Property Auctions and Drivers Norris.

Prepared buyers will formally instruct their chosen property lawyer as early as possible to allow sufficient time for a detailed review of the property's legal title well in advance of the auction day arrives.

Immediately following the auction day itself your lawyer is utterly geared up to completing the conveyancing in the limited time frame as conventionally required by the terms of sale.

Q.

To complete on our property purchase ASAP, how do we organise a fast conveyancing transaction in Bedfordshire?

A.

Importantly, a fast conveyancing transaction is essential to is to employing a proactive and experienced lawyer. There are, in addition, numerous tasks you as the buyer could do, such as, contacting your lawyer regularly, organising your finances and completing all forms as soon as possible.

Myself and my partner are interested in purchasing a property in Bedfordshire. Can I verify if the property is in a conservation area?

A.

There are a number of areas of conservation near or within Bedfordshire. Luton Town Centre, Luton Plaiters Lea and Luton High Town Road are among the conservation areas in Bedfordshire. The advantages of these restrictions will include better maintained homes and gardens, but they adds to upkeep costs. Your solicitor will provide more details.

Q.

When should I speak to a conveyancer in Bedfordshire?

A.

With a firm offering a 'no move, no fee' conveyancing quote, as soon as possible, as conveyancing involves several tasks that can be performed straight away. Instructing your solicitor sooner for a purchase may mean that you can shave days off the process by having the details of your instructed solicitor ready when you make an offer, or, if you are selling a property, relevant information can be sourced sooner (this is particularly true for leasehold properties).

Q.

The owner appears to have fitted PVC windows to the maisonette which I think may break Luton Plaiters Lea conservation area criteria.

A.

Your instructed solicitor will always identify if the property is located within a designated conservation area and whether any modifications have requisite consent from the local planning authority.

Q.

My agent has suggested the solicitor . Do I need to use this solicitor?

A.

Many estate agents will have a referral arrangement with solicitors whereby they refer work, however, such referrals must be compared with other local solicitors, or better-value firms found online, as an agent may decide to recommend whichever firm pays the most per referral, not the most suitable for you.
