My wife and I are nearing an exchange on a house in Bedminster and my parents have sent the ten percent deposit to my solicitor. I am now informed that as the deposit has not arrived from me my property lawyer needs to disclose this to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

The conveyancing practitioner is legally required to check with mortgage company to ensure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only notify this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

Are the Bedminster conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Co-operative?

Bedminster conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Co-operative directly.

We're in Bedminster, FTBs purchasing with a mortgage (lender is RBS , and our solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?

The fact that your lawyer is on the RBS conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no solicitor should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

How does conveyancing in Bedminster differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Bedminster contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Bedminster usually buy 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 Bedminster or who has acted in the same development.

I’m about to sell my 2 bed flat in Bedminster. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have just received a half-yearly service charge demand – Do I pay up?

It best that you pay the service charge as usual because all ground rent and service payments should be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.

I inherited a ground floor flat in Bedminster, conveyancing having been completed 10 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Bedminster with over 90 years remaining are worth £170,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2104

With just 78 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £7,600 and £8,800 plus professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
