At what point will exchange of contracts take place for purchase conveyancing in Bloxham and am I required to be at the lawyers office?
Where you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Bloxham you are invited in to sign documents. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend provide a nationwide conveyancing service and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not the important part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the conveyancer to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Bloxham)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

My wife and I are in the process of viewing apartments in Bloxham and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it premature to have a solicitor in place? I am planning to take a mortgage with Clydesdale.
You should start obtaining conveyancing estimates from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their details on to the selling agent. Given that you are getting a mortgage with Clydesdale, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
I have a mortgage with UBS for my property in Bloxham. Conveyancing has been completed 12 months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform UBS?
You must advise UBS in advance of renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of UBS’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact UBS directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a UBS conveyancing panel firm.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Bloxham is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can impart?

Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Bloxham you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bloxham may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
We're first time buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent advised that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's recommended lawyers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Bloxham
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the vendors direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Bloxham conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a referral fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds set by HQ.
