Just been in touch with my conveyancing lawyer in Llanwrtyd Wells who conducted the legals two years ago requesting a conveyancing costs illustration based on the same type of house move (a leasehold residence and a freehold premises) of similar values with a mortgage from Lloyds TSB Bank. It looks as though am now being charged twice the amount. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for a cheaper online firm of conveyancing solicitor?
The estimate does seem a little on the high side. Where you are prepared to invest time contrasting charges you may be able to shave off some of the expense by say £100 plus VAT. That being said, providing that you were happy with the conveyancing the firm offered you mightcome to regret opting for an an unknown conveyancer. Remember to enquire that the solicitor can represent Lloyds TSB Bank.

I would like to let out my leasehold flat in Llanwrtyd Wells. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?
A small minority of properties in Llanwrtyd Wells do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.
