give me your views on conveyancers and solicitors

I've just sold ie got an agreement to sell. 

Next the long and winding road to completion

Get prices from several providers and check what's included in the price and beware estate agents recommended conveyancers often pay introducers commission to the agents and this is added to your costs.

Tme is money and cheaper fixed price conveyancers limit the time / work accordingly and frequently take longer and quality suffers.

Be very pro-active, complete all your documents promptly and regularly call and manage your conveyancer and the other sides conveyancer. Remember, the other side may be using a cheaper fixed price conveyancer and this will impact you. 

Dealt with many sales (probates, etc) in last few years and you do not need to use a conveyancer that is local to the property. Firms outside London can be significantly cheaper and great quality. Was recommended a superb old school firm in North Wales and used them for several conveyances around England & Wales until they retired and closed shop.

Hope this helps

David Coombs at William Bailey has been very good for us, on multiple sales and purchases.
