We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would prefer to use a Lisson Grove based conveyancing firm?
You should check but the chances are that allocate you one of their panel solicitors if you accept the "fee-free" offer. Call the bank to ask if they make available a cash alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Lisson Grove.
A colleague recommended that where I am purchasing in Lisson Grove I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?
A search of this type is occasionally quoted for as part of the standard Lisson Grove conveyancing searches. It is not a small document of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out significant information about Lisson Grove around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Lisson Grove Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Lisson Grove Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information about Lisson Grove.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Lisson Grove?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Lisson Grove. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Lisson Grove is the location of the property. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Lisson Grove are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Lisson Grove you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Lisson Grove may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
