Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Acle

As someone not used to the Acle conveyancing process what’s the number one tip you can give me concerning the legal transfer of property in Acle

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Acle or throughout England and Wales is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of opportunity for friction between you and other parties involved in the home moving process. E.g., the seller, property agent and on occasion the lender. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Acle should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the legal process whose role it is to act in your legal interests and to protect you.

Sometimes a potential adversary will attempt to sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. As an example, the estate agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your conveyancer is wrong. Or your financial adviser may try to convince you to do take action that is against your solicitors recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the home moving process.

My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Acle. I I am struggling to find out whether they are accepted on the Skipton Building Society approved list of lawyers. Could you advise?

You should call your solicitor and ask them whether they can act for the lender. Otherwise you can call Skipton Building Society who may be able to help.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Coventry BS. I assume I don't need a Acle solicitor on the Coventry BS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your Coventry BS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Coventry BS mortgage from the register. Coventry BS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where Coventry BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Coventry BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Coventry BS mortgage has been paid off.

After much negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Acle. My mortgage broker suggested a solicitor. I paid an advanced payment of £175. A couple of days later, the property lawyer contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Nationwide panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I have finally had an offer on a flat in Acle agreed to, the sellers do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The vendors have offered on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Acle. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Bank of Ireland?

It is normal to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Acle conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your property lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many home buyers would apply for a home loan with Bank of Ireland and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their property lawyer to proceed with searches.

My colleague advised me that where I am buying in Acle I should ask my conveyancer to execute a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

This is a search is sometimes included in the estimate for your Acle conveyancing searches. It is a large document of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out important information about Acle around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime details, Acle Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data concerning Acle.

How easy is it to use your search tool to select a conveyancing lawyer in Acle on the authorised to act for my bank?

Step one is to select a lender such as Nationwide Building Society, Chelsea Building Society or Bank of Ireland then type in your location for example Acle. Conveyancing practices in Acle and nationally will then be shown.
