You can get it cheaper but who cares? Best bet is to get a solid recommendation from someone who isn't an idiot then talk to whoever they recommend, make sure they are adults.
You could consider going back the same solicitor who your sellers used when they sold you the house, they will at least know the place.
Obviously do not use the EA recommended solicitor, they only recommend them based on the kick back they get, they give no fucks about the service or quality. That said, they might not be awful, but just view them with the same scepticism you would any other, if not more.
Does anyone have any recent experience with solicitor fees? Sale only conveyancing on a freehold within a managed cul de sac? Just been quoted 1400 by a recommended solicitor, but they don't offer a no sale no fee agreement. Does that seem about right?
I don't really want to spend my day looking for solicitors for the sake of 50 to 100 quid savings...
