At long last a mortgage offer from HSBC for the refinancing of my single room flat is coming within the next few days. Can you put forward a cheap conveyancing lawyer in Arkley?

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to check the identity of the potential client they are dealing with prior to agreeing to accepting their conveyancing instruction. The Terms of Engagement that you need to sign will no doubt stipulate this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be viewed.

I have instructed a Arkley property lawyer having made sure that they are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Virgin Money will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Virgin Money 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. Your conveyancer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Arkley postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Virgin Money, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Arkley.

Virgin Money have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a flat in Arkley has been accepted, now what?

The estate agent will want to be informed of your conveyancing practitioner's details (be sure the conveyancers are on the bank’s panel). Call up Virgin Money or the financial adviser and finalise any outstanding forms. Virgin Money will appoint a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or vendor to schedule a slot for the valuation to happen. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes approximately a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. Virgin Money will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Arkley.

My wife and I own a terraced Edwardian house in Arkley. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Nottingham Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Arkley and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the position with the conveyancing practitioner who carried out the work.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Arkley. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Arkley

    There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?
