Lincolnshire is a county in the east of England and its county town in Lincoln, which is where the county council is situated. Land use here is predominantly agricultural. It is the second largest of the English ceremonial counties.
It is notable for not having any major urban areas, although the coastal population can rapidly rise seasonally because of the coast's popularity with tourists visiting places such as Skegness and Mablethorpe. The ambience is predominantly rural, with, for example, shops in most areas remaining closed on Sundays.
The county is particularly popular with birdwatchers, who "flock" to the fenland areas in the southeast of the county and the nature reserves at Gibraltar Point, Saltfleetby and Theddlethorpe.
Villages are generally self-contained. The county borders Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Rutland, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire and the East Riding of Yorkshire. Additionally, it has a border with Northamptonshire in the south: the shortest county boundary at a tiny 20 yards/18 metres.
Lincoln has two universities, the University of Lincoln and Bishop Grosseteste University.
**Our panel of solicitors are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and conveyancing work is accredited with the Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme.
***No Sale No Fee applies to any sale or purchase quote except auction and right to buy. Read our No Sale No Fee Policy.
What are the conveyancing costs?
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed, 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).
Make sure to budget for all of the above conveyancing costs and to get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from several firms, to compare value.

Why do I need the Property Searches?
If you are purchasing a property with a mortgage, then your lender requires you to purchase the property searches.The searches include information about the property held by the Water/Environmental Companies and Local Councils. They hold information such as planning consents, road adoption agreements, and any notices and/or restrictions affecting the property, if there are any tree preservation orders, flood or radon risks, if there is any ground instability that may affect the property, etc.
