In the event thatI were to acquire a straightforward housein Enderby for cash and have no survey and no local authority searches how much should I expect to have to pay for conveyancing in Enderby?

Having sold my house in Enderby last January but the buyer keeps Skype messaging me complaining that her solicitor is waiting to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done now that I have sold?
After completion of your sale your conveyancer is obliged to send the transfer documentation and all additional paperwork to the buyer’s conveyancer. Depending on the transaction, your solicitor must also send confirmation that the mortgage has been discharged to the purchasers conveyancers. There are no post completion steps unique to conveyancing in Enderby.
We are buying a detached bungalow in Enderby. The intention is to convert the garage to an office at the house.Will legal work on the property include checks to see if these works are permitted?
Your property lawyer should review the deeds as conveyancing in Enderby can on occasion identify restrictions in the title documents which prevent categories of works or require the permission of a 3rd party. Some works require local authority planning permissions and approval in accordance building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. It would be wise to check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.
We had chosen conveyancers with offices in Enderby on the Co-operative solicitor panel. They have just billed me a separate fee for dealing with the Co-operative mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Co-operative?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancer may charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by Co-operative but by your Enderby conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the Co-operative panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some firms incorporate it on their overall fee.
My partner and I have organised the release of further monies on our home loan from Coventry BS as we intend to conduct alterations to our house in Enderby. Do we need to select a nearby Enderby solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?
Coventry BS don't usually appoint a member of their approved list of lawyers 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.
Should I be suspicious about estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting an online conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Enderby conveyancing firm?
As is the case with lots of professional services, often input from relatives can be very helpful. Yet there are many players in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies may suggest lawyers to choose. Sometimes these solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there might be a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You have the right to choose your preferred lawyer. Don't forget that most mortgage providers specify a panel list of law firms you are obliged to use for the lender aspect of your transaction.
