Conveyancing - should I use internet based?

Canucklehead

Good morning: I've posted in other threads about our experience with online conveyancing i.e. Legalmove:wall:
Conveyancing Warehouse (3 times to date) no problems and recommend them...advice would be to phone and confirm by email any queries, receipt of documents etc...in other words, stay on top of events. We also use an online estate agent i.e. Housenetwork. End result...lots of cash stayed in our pockets:D

Its probably the same with solicitors as with conveyancers theres both good and bad out there.
Personnaly I would find a good recommended local solicitor, who you can then chase if things go wrong, rather than a faceless office miles from where you live.
Things can go wrong and sometimes not even come to light until years or several sales into the future, the legals are useually just a formality and don't take too much legal skill , but its the searches where problems usually arise and then it's a matter of how well your solicitor/ conveyancor chases these problems down to a satisfactory level.

Just make sure you read ALL the small print, terms and conditions etc. Sometimes there are all kinds of hidden extras hidden away so as to make the apparently cheap top line quote become a lot more expensive!
