Recently contacted my conveyancing solicitor in Hawes who completed the legal work two years ago and wanted a conveyancing quote based on an identical type of house move (a leasehold property and a freehold property) of similar values with a loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. It looks as though am now being charged double. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for an alternative property lawyer?
The quote is fractionally on the expensive side. If you are willing to spend time contrasting charges you may be able to trim some of the expense by perhaps £100 plus VAT. On the other hand, assuming were satisfied with the conveyancing the firm gave you maycome to rue opting for an a cheaper lawyer. Don't forget to be sure the conveyancer can represent Lloyds TSB Bank.

I'm converting the mortgage on my current house to a BTL loan with Alliance & Leicester and I will use the rest of the raised equity as a down payment on another property. The neighborhood we are looking at is Hawes. Will your solicitors be able to act for both sets of mortgage companies and link together the conveyances?
