As someone with no idea as to the Somerton conveyancing process what’s the number one tip you can give me for the house moving process in Somerton
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Somerton and elsewhere in Somerset is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of opportunity for confrontation between you and others involved in the house moving process. For example, the vendor, estate agent and sometimes the bank. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Somerton is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the transaction whose interest is to protect your legal interests and to keep you safe.
Every so often a third party with a vested interest will try and sway you that you should follow their advice. For example, the selling agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your lawyer is dragging his heels. Or your financial adviser may try to convince you to do something that is contrary to your solicitors recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Somerton is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
