Just contacted my conveyancing lawyer in Boldon who conducted the legals 18 months ago asking for a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold property and a freehold property) of almost identical values with a home loan from Platform Home Loans Ltd. It looks as though am now being quoted twice the amount. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for a cheaper online firm of conveyancing solicitor?
The estimate does seem a tad on the high side. If you shop around you may be able to shave off some of the cost by as much as a hundred pounds. On the other hand, providing that you were satisfied with the service the firm gave you mightlive to rue choosing an a cheaper solicitor. If is important to be sure that the conveyancer can represent Platform Home Loans Ltd.

I purchased a renovated Georgian property in Boldon. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and HSBC Bank. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Boldon and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the position with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the work.

My cousin is purchasing a studio flat in Boldon. He was given a quote by the conveyancer connected to the estate agents totaling £1156 . It was eight years ago since I sold and bought a house and it cost was £600. Have fees really escalated to that extent?
You should call two or three local Boldon conveyancing firms requesting prices. You should base your selection not just on cost, but on promptness and on how comprehensive the reply was.
