On the other hand, you maycome to rue choosing an an untested lawyer. Don't forget to check that the conveyancer can also act for your mortgage company.

I just bought a property at auction in Perranporth. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?
Having exchanged you must retain a conveyancing lawyer as a matter of urgency as you are faced with a fast approaching deadline in which to complete the deal. An auction property will have an associated legal set of papers. This should include evidence of title and search results. If you have purchased leasehold property the auction papers may include a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork pertinent to leasehold premises. You should hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. Do make sure that you have funds organised to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
Forgive me if this question is silly but I am new to the home moving as FTB of a garden flat in Perranporth. Do I receive the keys to the property on the completion date from my lawyer? If this is the case, I will instruct a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Perranporth?
On the day of completion you will not be required to attend the conveyancers office in Perranporth. Your solicitors will transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s conveyancers, and once they have received this, you will be able to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this happens early afternoon.
