Alan Ambrose Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hi, Does anyone have a solicitor or conveyancer they would recommend for a fairly simple plot purchase? Bonus points if they're based in East Anglia . I've searched the forums here but can't see any actual names. Someone must have had a good experience? TIA, Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Not in the area. I normally suggest a local one with more than one branch, and some sort of specialist land expertise so it's available in case you need it. So you get to deal with one experienced person, with backup available. I generally recommend against regional companies big enough to imagine they are in a different league with rates. For a specific recommendation I would ask a Chartered Surveyor or most experienced member of staff in a long-term trusted local EA. That is the middle-aged one in the backroom who looks as if they have been dragged through a hedge backwards, and has their tea out of a chipped cup marked "Lawn Mower Racing Championship 2006. Third place.". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Ambrose Posted July 21, 2022 Author Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hmm, am I right in thinking: as there are not many small plots sold, I guess there's not a lot of business and/or experience actually out there? Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jilly Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 The Land Registry is unbelievably slow at the moment. Use a solicitor experienced in land conveyancing who will advise you re Covenants etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
