Why would I use a Urmston conveyancing firm when national conveyancers are easier on the wallet?

What is your number one tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Urmston

We would encourage you not to base your choice on the cheapest Urmston conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of the deal.

Have just purchased a probate house at auction in Urmston. Conveyancing is necessary. What is next?

Now that you have legally committed yourself to purchase you will need to choose a conveyancing practitioner as a matter of urgency as you are facing a pending deadline in which to complete the transaction.

You need to pass this on to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. Do make sure that your finances are organised to complete the transaction on the set completion date.

We expect to receive a OIP from UBS this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).

It has been 4 months following my purchase conveyancing in Urmston completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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 premises 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.
