I selected a local firm for my conveyancing in Burscough today. Reviewing the official terms of business I noteI am responsible for fees even if the dealfalls through. Would I be best advised to use an internet firm promising no completion no cost conveyancing in Burscough?

Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will generally be more expensive to counteract the conveyances that do not go ahead.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Burscough is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?

Flying freeholds in Burscough are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Burscough you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Burscough may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
