I opted for a Middlewich based solicitor for our conveyancing in Middlewich last week. After carefully reading the fine print I notewe are liable for charges even where the conveyance does not complete.

It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be uplifted to cover the transactions that do not proceed. You should be mindful that such arrangements tend not to protect you from outlay such your Middlewich conveyancing search costs.

What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Middlewich? Is this really necessary?
It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Middlewich.

We are buying a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Middlewich. The intention is to convert the garage to an office at the house.Will the conveyancing process involve enquiries to determine if these works are allowed?
Your solicitor will check the deeds as conveyancing in Middlewich can on occasion reveal restrictions in the title documents which prohibit categories of changes or necessitated the consent of a 3rd party. Some works require local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations.

We had instructed conveyancers based in Middlewich on the Coventry BS solicitor panel. They have just invoiced me a supplemental fee for dealing with the Coventry BS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Coventry BS?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your conveyancing practitioner can levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Coventry BS but by your Middlewich lawyer. Numerous firms on the Coventry BS panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
We were going to get a AIP from Skipton this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Skipton recommend any Middlewich solicitors on the Skipton conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Middlewich solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Skipton conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Skipton through the process.
Just bought a semi-detached house in Middlewich , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Middlewich conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check the registration is concluded.
As far as conveyancing in Middlewich registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration occurs once the purchaser is living at the property so post completion formalities is not typically primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
