What are the conveyancing costs?
Darlington Conveyancing Solicitor fees dramatically vary depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.

What is a Contract Race?
In a contract race, the seller sends out the contract of sale for a property to more than one interested buyer and the sale is then agreed with the first interested buyer who returns the signed contract at which point contracts are exchanged and the normal conveyancing process continues.
The seller must make their best efforts to bring any matters of concern to the attention of the prospective buyers and must inform all of them that there is a contract race and keep them abreast of any developments, such as a prospective buyer dropping out.
The legal principle of caveat emptor (or 'let the buyer beware') still applies: any prospective buyer is still advised to carry out all the normal checks to ensure that they have as much knowledge of the property as they can muster before they commit to buying it.
