Selling or buying a home with our Market Harborough Conveyancing Solicitors
Market Harborough is a market town in Leicestershire and the area used to be part of the Rockingham Forest, a former royal hunting ground in medieval times used by monarchs starting with William I. It has a history stretching back to Saxon times and was prominent in the English Civil War as the headquarters of the King's Army.
There was a considerable increase in building homes with bricks in the 18th century – they were frequently previously built of mud, thatch and timber – and around this time the town became a staging point for coach travel between London, the Midlands and the North West. Industry considerably developed in the 19th century and the arrival of the Leicester-Rugby railway in 1840 (even though the town itself didn't get a station until 1850) spelt the end of the coach travel industry. The centre of the town has been classified as a conservation area.
Landmarks and attractions include the Old Grammar School, built in 1614, St Dionysius Church, which dates back to the 14th century, The Old Town Hall, The Old Fire Station, Harborough Museum, the Foxton Locks (a sequence of 10 canal locks in two staircases each of 5 locks) and Gartree Prison.

Leicestershire has 2 motorways running through it - the M1 and the M69. The county has 3 universities; the University of Leicester, Loughborough University and De Montfort University.
The county hosts the East Midlands Airport a hub airport for domestic, EU and international flights, which is located at Castle Donington. Castle Donington is also the location of Donington Park, which has many uses, ranging from motor racing to hosting large music concerts and festivals.

Food associated with the county includes Red Leicester, Long Clawson and Stilton cheeses and pork pies, particularly Melton Mowbray Pork Pies.
For random facts, the original Hansom Cab - i.e. with a mechanical meter - was invented in Hinckley in the county (by Joseph Hansom) in 1834 and Thomas Cook organised the world's first package tour from Leicester in 1841.
Worth a paragraph on its own, the phrase 'painting the town red' originates from revelry which accompanied some loutish aristocratic hunters celebrating a good day's hunting in 1837 in Melton Mowbray: they daubed red paint on houses, pub signs and a toll-bar and apparently, some of the paint still remains on some of the older houses in the High Street.

What are the conveyancing costs?
Market Harborough 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.

How often should you communicate with your solicitor?
It's a given that conveyancing mainly centres on communications conducted between different solicitor firms acting for both buyer and seller and that you won't need to be in constant communication with your solicitor, who should contact you if there is pressing need.
That said, you should definitely communicate with your solicitor if something particular is worrying you. Your property searches will show up planning applications lodged within the boundaries of the property you're buying but let's say for example you've your heart set on a view of an open field at the back of the property. You should, in this situation, tell your solicitor to carry out searches against the field to check if there might be plans to build new houses there.
