Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bampton

Me and my partner are due to exchange on the purchase of a house in Bampton but as a consequence of damage from a small fire at the property I have managed to agree compensation from the owner of £2k in the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process yet Bank of Ireland will not permit this. Should they have been notified?

Any conveyancer being on a Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel is duty bound to disclose to Bank of Ireland of any variations to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to disclose the price change to Bank of Ireland then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Bank of Ireland and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Bampton.

Should I be concerned that brokers that I am dealing with are recommending an online conveyancing firm rather than a local Bampton conveyancing firm?

As with many professional services, often recommendations from relatives can be very helpful. Yet there are lots of players in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, financial adviser and mortgage companies might all suggest solicitors to select. On occasion the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there behind the scenes commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to appoint your own lawyer. Don't forget that the majority of lenders specify a panel list of lawyers you are obliged to use for the mortgage aspect of your transaction.

At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Bampton agreed to, the owner does however have a tied purchase. The owners have submitted an offer on a property, although it’s not yet agreed to, and has viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Bampton. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Barclays?

It is usual to have apprehensions where there is an associated chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Bampton conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your property lawyer is on the Barclays approved list. As to the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some home buyers would apply for a home loan with Barclays and pay for the survey and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Bampton.
