It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will generally be higher to counteract those cases that do not go ahead. Dont forget that such deals rarely protect you from expenditure for instance Nether Stowey conveyancing search costs.

I am looking for a flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Nether Stowey I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Nether Stowey in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

This is due to the fact that on completion the money needs to be transferred electronically between the banks of the purchaser and seller's and currently this can only happen on a business day. So you can't complete on a saturday or sunday either.
