Property Sales
In a difficult or falling market
sales are more likely to encounter ups and downs. Surveyors
and valuers become more stringent and transactions can take longer
to complete, with lenders being stricter with their requirements.
In this sort of market you need
a solicitor committed to ensuring that your transaction completes
successfully. There is no better way of dong this than by
using a local, accessible, and helpful professional solicitor who
does your work personally and speaks to you whenever you call.
ABA LAW solicitors are well placed to provide this personal and
professional service.

 A
Word About Conveyancing Quotes
Conveyancing quotes come in many forms. Some firms will quote a
headline figure for the conveyancing that is very low. Remember
the saying "if it looks too good to be true it probably is".
Always work out the total figure including disbursements. This is
because some firms quote a low figure
and then add on as additional fees elements of the work that are
really part of the legal fees payable to the firm, such as a fee
for acting for a mortgage company or redeeming a mortgage,
completing a stamp duty land tax return, dealing with leases and
leasehold enquiries, or even a contribution to the firm's'
professional indemnity insurance, amongst other things.
Often these quotes do not make clear that these
"additional fees" are payable to the solicitors and not a third
party, thus giving the impression that the solicitor's fee is
low. The only way to check the value is to calculate the whole
figure, including all the additions. You will find that many
firms who advertise very low rates actually come out as expensive
compared to us. We think this misleads clients and we do not do
it. Our quoted fee includes all elements of legal work and we do
not pass off parts of our legal fees as "additional fees".
