If you had a top tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Alton what would it be?

It would be unwise to be tempted by the cheapest Alton conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of time.

When it comes to lenders such as RBS, do Alton solicitors incur a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are unaware of any lender fees to register on their panel, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

After shopping around on the internet I have found a Alton conveyancer having made sure that they are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Nationwide will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Nationwide will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Alton surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our property are lost. The conveyancers who did the conveyancing in Alton 5 years ago no longer exist. What are my next steps?

You no longer need to hold title official documentation to evidence that you are the registered proprietor of land or premises, as the Land Registry have everything they need in a digital format.
