Last August we completed a house move in Bamber Bridge. We have noticed several issues with the property which we suspect were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Bamber Bridge?

It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Bamber Bridge. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated during the legal transfer of property are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor completes a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers provided is misleading, you may have a misrepresentation claim against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Bamber Bridge.

When it comes to lenders such as HSBC, do Bamber Bridge conveyancers face a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are not aware of any bank fees to register on their panel, although some do charge an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

It is not clear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Bamber Bridge bank branch on numerous occasions and was reassured it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Bamber Bridge conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they refuse to lend based on their published requirements. I have no idea who is right.

The property lawyer has to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook section two requirements for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

About to purchase flat in Bamber Bridge. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the TSB conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Bamber Bridge lawyer is on the TSB conveyancing panel.

I have todaydiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Bamber Bridge for a purchase of a leasehold flat 18 months ago. How can I check that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest method to check if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Bamber Bridge conveyancing specialists.

How does conveyancing in Bamber Bridge differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Bamber Bridge approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because new home sellers in Bamber Bridge usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Bamber Bridge or who has acted in the same development.

Been reading online that Bamber Bridge solicitors are more costly than Bamber Bridge conveyancers in Bamber Bridge to use when buying a house. So is it better if I use a conveyancer or a solicitor where I am purchasing a house in Bamber Bridge.

When it comes to conveyancing in Bamber Bridge the costs are unlikely to vary dramatically depending on whether the legal expert is a licenced conveyancer or solicitor.
