Recently been in touch with my conveyancing lawyer in Choppington who conducted the legals 18 months ago and wanted a conveyancing costs illustration based on the same type of home move (a leasehold premises and a freehold property) of almost identical values with a loan from Alliance & Leicester . I am now being quoted double. Stick with what I know or should I try and find a cheaper online property lawyer?
The estimate does seem a little steep. Where you are content to spend time contrasting charges you could get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by as much as £100 plus VAT.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Choppington I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Choppington suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

If so you will need to inform them of the new conveyancer and have the mortgage documents are re-issued. Your solicitor ideally needs to be on the lenders approved list to avoid added costs and frustration. That should be your first question of the new lawyers.
