Developers have recommended to me a conveyancing practitioner and I've received an estimate from them. It's nearly two hundred pounds less expensive than my family Romford conveyancer. Should I use them?

Developers frequently have panels of lawyers who are quick and who know the seller’s contract and conveyancer. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to use a preferred property lawyer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing stall when they want exchange within a tight deadline. The argument for not agreeing to use the recommended solicitor is that they may be hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the housebuilder. If you worry that this may be the case you should remain with your local Romford conveyancer.
