I hired a local solicitor for my conveyancing in Armthorpe yesterday. Upon checking the Terms I seeI am liable for fees even if the movefalls through. Should I go with them or use a web based conveyancing brokerage promoting no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Armthorpe?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to neutralise those conveyances that abort. Please beware that such schemes tend not to protect you from outlay by way of example Armthorpe conveyancing search expenses.
My conveyancer has uncovered a a problem with the lease for the apartment we are buying in Armthorpe. The other side have suggested title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our solicitor has advised that he must check that the bank is willing to move forward with this solution. Are we the client or is the bank?
Regardless of the fact that you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their requirements for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions. You and the bank are the client. The appropriate lender provisions must be adhered to.
My husband and I wish to acquire a newly converted apartment in Armthorpe with a residential mortgage from Birmingham Midshires.We have a Armthorpe conveyancing solicitor but Birmingham Midshires informed us her practice is not listed on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct a Birmingham Midshires panel lawyer or keep our high street solicitor and fork out for a Birmingham Midshires panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The home loan offered to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that lawyers needs to be on the Birmingham Midshires conveyancing panel. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Birmingham Midshires
