In the event thatI was to buy a freehold housein Roundhay mortgage fee and dispense with a survey and no local authority searches how much could I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Roundhay?

The sole saving you would achieve is the Roundhay conveyancing searches.

3 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Roundhay completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. 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 residence 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.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Roundhay is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can impart?

Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Roundhay 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.

Is it best to choose a Roundhay conveyancing lawyer based in the location that I am hoping to buy? An old friend can conduct the conveyancing however they are based over three hundred miles drive away.

The primary upside of using a local Roundhay conveyancing practice is that you can drop in to execute paperwork, deliver your ID and pester them if necessary. They will also have local intelligence which is a benefit. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who used your friend and they were impressed that should surpass using an unfamiliar Roundhay conveyancing solicitor just because they are based in the area.
