Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Kenilworth

I am obtaining a offer of a home loan from Nat West. I hope to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Kenilworth. Does the Nat West Conveyancing panel exclude Licensed Conveyancers?

The Nat West approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

I had intended to instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Kenilworth for our house purchase. Our broker has since advised us that our mortgage lenders Godiva Mortgages Ltd won't deal with them. Why is this not regarded as unduly restrictive?

A decade ago most lenders had a different appetite for risk. Almost all Kenilworth conveyancing firms would have been on many lender panels. The FSA in 2010 conducted a thematic investigation into mortgage fraud which come to the conclusion: know the conveyancing solicitors dealt with. Consequently, mortgage companies have regularly sought more information from law firms concerning their operations and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such a completing on a minimum number of transactions. Many Kenilworth conveyancing firms that have been excluded from lender panels have a 100% healthy track record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Kenilworth is one of the thousands of locations where the conveyancers we list are on the panel for Godiva Mortgages Ltd.

Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that may affect a commercial site in Kenilworth?

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Kenilworth will execute a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers spend in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Kenilworth. The search result sets out definitive information on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Kenilworth.

For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Kenilworth it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately can cause delays to Kenilworth commercial conveyancing transactions as well as present a risk to future plans for the site. These searches are not conducted for domestic conveyancing in Kenilworth.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our property are lost. The solicitors who handled the conveyancing in Kenilworth 5 years ago are no longer around. What are my next steps?

Assuming you have a registered title the information relating to your ownership will be documented by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is possible to carry out a search at the Land Registry, locate your house and obtain up to date copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases hold a certified copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for twenty pounds.

How does conveyancing in Kenilworth differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Kenilworth contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Kenilworth usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Kenilworth or who has acted in the same development.

What advice can you give us when it comes to finding a Kenilworth conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

When appointing a property lawyer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Kenilworth conveyancing firm) it is most important that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We recommend that you speak with two or three firms including non Kenilworth conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions might be useful:

    Can they put you in touch with clients in Kenilworth who can give a testimonial?
