Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Anerley

I opted for a local firm for my conveyancing in Anerley last week. After carefully reading the Terms and Conditions it is apparent thatI am on the hook for charges even if the dealdoes not go ahead. Should I go with them or appoint a web based firm promising no move no charge conveyancing in Anerley?

Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to counteract those transactions that do not go ahead. Do bear in mind that such offerings rarely cover outlay e.g. Anerley conveyancing search costs.

The property market in Anerley is heating up. What can I do to speed up matters?

Where the seller is applying pressure for your conveyancing it is highly recommended that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will have local contacts and know-how. It is possible that they may have handled previoushouses in the same neighbourhood. Therefore consider using a Anerley conveyancing solicitor. Second, be sure that the lawyer is on the on the approved list for your mortgage company. It is claimed that 18% of Anerley conveyancing transactions are suspended or jeopardised after discovering a purchaser’s solicitor was not on their banks list of approved solicitors. This can often result in the home move being frustrated by almost 21 days. It is claimed that this issue impacts in the region of one hundred thousand home sales annually. Many Anerley conveyancing firms can not represent certain mortgage companies so do check as early as possible.

Do all mortgage companies provide you with an approved list of Anerley conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Santander conveyancing panel?

Anerley conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Santander conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Santander directly.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is removed from the Lloyds Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Anerley?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

Should I be concerned that brokers that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use a web based conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Anerley conveyancing firm?

As is the case with lots of professional services, often input from family and friends can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are many people with a vested interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, financial adviser and banks might all put forward conveyancers to select. On occasion the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there exists a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to appoint your preferred conveyancer. However, bear in mind that many banks specify a panel list of conveyancers you are obliged to use for the lender related work in your conveyancing.

My partner and I are FTB’s just having agreed a price on a property in Anerley, and need to get solicitors instructed. I have made use of the different rating tools and the fee estimates are from all across the England and Wales. Is it critical to have a Anerley property lawyer local to the prospective new home? I am willing to do everything over the internet, but I assume at some stage we may be required to attend the conveyancer's office to sign papers?

The property lawyer does not have to be in Anerley, but opting for local means that you can visit their offices if you need to, for instance, if a signature is needed urgently. Also, a Anerley solicitor have established relationships with local agents and (if the vendor has instructed a local conveyancing practitioner) with them, which should help keep things moving faster.
