AssumingI was to buy a freehold homein Cudham mortgage fee and dispense with a survey and no local authority searches how much could I expect to have to pay for conveyancing in Cudham?

The sole saving you would make on is the costs for searches. A property lawyer is required to do the vast majority of work - money laundering, liaising with the sellers conveyancing practitioner, SDLT return, register the property etc. A slight saving might be made by not needing to register a charge but it will not be a lot.

My uncle passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Cudham. The house had a relatively small loan left on it of around £5k. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to UBS, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?

Given you intend to re-mortgage then UBS will require that you use a conveyancer on the UBS conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your UBS conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the UBS mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.

My wife and I have organised the release of further funds on our mortgage from Coventry BS as we intend to carry out improvements to our property in Cudham. Do we need to appoint a local Cudham solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

Coventry BS would not normally require firms on their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Coventry BS list.

2 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Cudham took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
