Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bankside

After what seems like an age a loan agreement from HSBC for the remortgage of my single room garden flat is to be issued imminently. Are you able to recommend a cheap conveyancing solicitor in Bankside?

This site is not designed to assist those in their quest for a cheap conveyancing in Bankside. Our intention is to offer value for money conveyancing but our intention is not to work with the cheapest lawyers. Avoid the trap of appointing organisations teasing you with low cost conveyancing in Bankside. At best, in deciding on low cost conveyancing, you will receive what you pay for and at worst you will end up spending a lot in extras and still not get the service you were looking for.

It is 10 years ago since I acquired my property in Bankside. Conveyancing lawyers have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to track down my title deeds. Will this cause complications?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with your mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the land will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Bankside involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

I am considering applying for a RBS mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in Bankside with 65 per cent loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for RBS ?

There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but RBS will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is greater potential for delays and confusion with an additional lawyer added to the mix, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.

What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Bankside

We previously instructed conveyancing lawyers based in Bankside on the Skipton solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further sum for the legal aspects of the Skipton mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Skipton?

Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your conveyancing practitioner is entitled to charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by Skipton but by your Bankside lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Skipton panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Bankside. I have a mortgage offer with HSBC. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with HSBC, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the HSBC conveyancing panel.

A relative advised me that if I am buying in Bankside I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?

This is a search is occasionally included in the estimate for your Bankside conveyancing searches. It is a large report of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out significant information about Bankside around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Local Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information about Bankside.

Just bought a terraced house in Bankside , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Bankside conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my ownership is recorded.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Bankside registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present in the region of 80% of submission are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration occurs after the new owner has moved in to the property so 'speed' is not always an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
