Why don't you need a conveyancer based in Hyndburn?

In the old days you used your local solicitor. You would visit their office in the centre of Hyndburn, and all documents would be hand-produced and posted or delivered by hand.

That service came at a price, but the truth is that it is no longer needed. With modern technology such as scanning, emailing and even Skype or Facetime video calls there is no need to use your local solicitor. Your conveyancer can be based anywhere and still provide a great service - even if he or she is in an office many miles away from Hyndburn or perhaps not even in Lancashire.

We have successfully dealt with thousands of conveyancing transactions all over the country, even with clients from the other side of the world. It is not unknown for us to talk to clients outside the UK using Skype, and once we had clients in Thailand talking to us through an interpreter in New Zealand!

There will be no need for you to visit our offices or hand deliver documents. You need never leave Hyndburn - our conveyancers will talk you through the process via phone and email, and everything works just as smoothly as it would if we were just down the road.

Fees for conveyancing in Hyndburn

Our fees are transparent and, so long as the situation does not change (for example so long as your property doesn't turn out to be leasehold when we thought it was freehold) the fee we quote is the fee you will be charged.

We don't add extras on for things like photocopying, postage, or the like. Those are our overheads and we don't pass them on to you.

All our conveyancing fees are dependent on the nature and value of the transaction, so we naturally charge a bit more for more complicated and high value work. However, the fee charged will be the same for a customer in Newcastle as it would be for someone in London, or indeed in Hyndburn.

There are some aspects of our conveyancing fees which we can't change. Fees charged by other bodies such as HM Land Registry, or by HMRC for Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) are out of our control.

Introduction to Hyndburn

Hyndburn is a local government district with borough status in Lancashire. As of mid-2014 the district's population is 80,208. The majority of this population can be found in the town of Accrington, home of the district's administrative HQ, which has a population of over 45,000.

Other notable settlements include Clayton-le-Moors, Great Harwood and Rishton, which have populations of 8,500, 11,217 and 7,350 respectively.

Like many British government districts, Hyndburn was formed on the 1st April 1974 through a merger of the Borough of Accrington, the Urban Districts of Church, Clayton-le-Moors, Great Harwood, Oswaldtwistle and Rishton, as well as parts of the Burnley Rural District.

Being the largest town in the district by a long way, Accrington acts as the economic hub for the area. It originally grew to a large extent during the Industrial Revolution, with prosperous textile and coal mining industries, like many large towns in Lancashire.

However, also like much of the north, these industries declined in the latter half of the 20th century. Nowadays, the economy is centered more around the service and retail sectors. Large scale employers and high street stores include Argos, Carphone Warehouse, O2 and Burton. There is also a large Tesco Extra and a retail park, known as the Peel Centre, located near Whitebirk.

The town also has a shopping centre, known as The Arcade, which houses around 20 stores and services.
the towns of Clayton, Rishton and Great Harwood also have mediocre retail services.

Accrington is also home to the district's main sporting facilities and clubs. Accrington Stanley F.C is the most notable- they currently play in League Two, and their ground, The Wham Stadium, has a capacity of over 5,000.

There are also cricket clubs, rugby clubs and a golf course in the town, as well as a leisure centre.

In terms of transport, the district is served well. The main railway stations are in Rishton and Accrington. Rishton railway station provides services to the likes of Blackburn, Preston, Blackpool South and Burnley, which are based on the East Lancashire Line.

Accrington provides similar services, but other services run to the likes of Leeds and York.
