Can conveyancing in Dunston to be finalised in under 28 days?
In a situation where the seller is applying time constraints for your conveyancing we would recommend that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will have local contacts and knowledge. It is possible that they could have conducted previoushomes in the same street. Therefore consider using a Dunston conveyancing lawyer. Second, check that the conveyancing firm is on the member panel. It is understood that nearly one in five of Dunston conveyancing transactions are suspended or derailed after finding out that a buyer’s solicitor was not on their mortgage lender’s member panel. This can often result in the conveyancing being held up by an average of three weeks. It is claimed that this issue impacts approximately one hundred thousand home moves annually. Almost all Dunston conveyancing firms can not act for certain lenders so do check at the outset.
