AssumingI were to acquire a freehold housein Greenfield for cash and dispense with a survey and no local authority searches how much could I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Greenfield?
The only saving you would make on is the disbursement for searches. A property lawyer is required to do the vast majority of work - money laundering, liaising with your vendors conveyancer, stamp duty submission, register the property etc. You might save a bit for them not needing to register a charge however it won't be meaningful.
Completed the sale of my flat in Greenfield last September but my buyer keeps e-mailing me complaining that his conveyancer is waiting to hear from mine. What should have happened following completion?
Following your house sale your solicitor should deliver the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Where appropriate, your conveyancer should also send confirmation that the mortgage has been redeemed to the buyers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion procedures specific conveyancing in Greenfield.
