Oldham is a town in Greater Manchester, 5.3 miles southeast of Rochdale and 6.9 miles northeast of Manchester.
Oldham rose to prominence in the 19th century as an international centre of textile manufacture. Among the first ever industrialised towns, rapidly becoming "one of the most important centres of cotton and textile industries in England". At its peak, it was the most productive cotton spinning mill town in the world, producing more cotton than France and Germany combined. Oldham's textile industry fell into decline in the mid-20th century; the town's last mill closed in 1998.
Today Oldham is a predominantly residential town, and the improvement of the town centre is the focus of a project for transforming Oldham into a centre for further education and the performing arts. It is, however, still distinguished architecturally by the surviving cotton mills and other buildings associated with that industry.

What are the conveyancing costs?
Oldham 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.

What is the Help to Buy ISA?
The Help to Buy ISA is essentially a savings account in which you can save money to purchase your first home. The Government will boost your savings by 25%, for example for every £200 you save the government will give you a bonus of £50.
The Government starts paying you the bonus when you've accumulated at least £1,600 in your account. The maximum bonus you can receive is £3,000.
Once you have purchased a home and are near to completion you will need your solicitor to apply for your government bonus. The bonus must be included with the funds consolidated at the completion of the property transaction.
The bonus cannot be used for the deposit due at the exchange of contracts, to pay for solicitor’s, estate agent’s fees or any other indirect costs associated with buying a home.
