Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Boston

My financial adviser says he needs my Boston lawyer’ panel member for the Nat West conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I discover this. I have tried my local Boston office but they have not responded to me.

You are best placed to get this information from your Boston conveyancing practitioner . Most Boston law firms will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each mortgage company.

Last November we completed a house move in Boston. We have since encountered a number of issues with the property which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Boston?

It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Boston. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated during the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a property owner fills in a form known as a SPIF. If the information ends up being incorrect, then you may have a claim against the vendor 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 Boston.

When does exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Boston and do I need to be at the conveyancers office?

If you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Boston you are welcome to attend to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend supply a countrywide conveyancing service and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the conveyancer to officially exchange at the suitable time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Boston)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

A relative suggested that if I am purchasing in Boston I should ask my conveyancer to perform a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

This is a search is occasionally included in the estimate for your Boston conveyancing searches. It is not a small document of about 40 pages, listing and detailing important information about Boston 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 demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime statistics, Local Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data regarding Boston.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Boston. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is registered - and most are in Boston - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I am the registered owner of a ground floor flat in Boston, conveyancing was carried out in 1995. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Comparable flats in Boston with an extended lease are worth £206,000. The ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease runs out on 21st October 2091

With 66 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to be between £11,400 and £13,200 plus professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.

Having used your search tool I can't find the lawyer I was hoping to instruct as being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel. My lawyer has said that they are on the lender approved panel. How can I be sure given that they are not listed on your directory?

Not all firms are yet listed on our lender panel search tool which is still relatively new. Law firms are listing on a daily basis and it is probably the case that your lawyer is on the mortgage company conveyancing lawyer and you should probably take them at their word. Please do feel free to suggest that they completing their listing on our site as it would only cost them £1 a month to list themselves as being on the mortgage company solicitor panel.
