It may have been a long time coming a loan offer from Santander for the refinancing of my single bedroom garden flat is coming imminently. Are you able to suggest a low cost conveyancing lawyer in Lavenham?
You are on the wrong site if you are seeking the lowest fares for conveyancing solicitors in Lavenham. We can offer you excellent value conveyancing but our intention is not to advertise as being the cheapest. Do not be fooled by organisations offering the bait of £100 conveyancing in Lavenham. In your best case scenario, in choosing a lawyer for low cost conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst it will result in you being stung for extras and still not receive the service expected.

Can I be sure that the Lavenham conveyancing solicitor on the TSB panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Lavenham getting recommendations is a sensible starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees. We would always advise that you speak with the lawyer handling your transaction.
My partner and I have arranged a further advance on our home loan from Aldermore as we wish to conduct alterations to our home in Lavenham. Are we obliged to choose a bricks and mortar Lavenham solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
Aldermore would not normally appoint 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 Aldermore panel.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Leeds Building Society. I assume I don't need a Lavenham property lawyer on the Leeds Building Society panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Leeds Building Society mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Leeds Building Society mortgage from the register. Leeds Building Society, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Leeds Building Society has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Leeds Building Society has instructed the Land Registry to do so

How does conveyancing in Lavenham differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Lavenham approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Lavenham usually purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Lavenham or who has acted in the same development.
