I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and have to vacate my rented flat in Brading by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is progressing. How realistic is it to complete in 5 weeks as I wish to avoid having to move into short term accommodation?
Generally one should not provide notice on a rental until you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not already done so, speak to your solicitor and ask them to they cajole the owners lawyers, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will look towards
Having sold my house in Brading last August but the buyer keeps texting me to say his lawyer needs to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done following completion?
Following your disposal your lawyer should forward the transfer documentation and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. If applicable, your solicitor must also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been redeemed to the buyers solicitors. There are no post completion formalities just for conveyancing in Brading.
Me and my brother have a renovated Victorian property in Brading. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and The Royal Bank of Scotland. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Brading and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also check the position with your conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.
I decided to have a survey completed on a house in Brading prior to instructing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor advised that some lenders tend not give a mortgage on this type of property.
It depends who your proposed lender is. Santander has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you call us we can look into this further with the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Brading. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Brading to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

I have been searching for Brading conveyancing quotes online. Can I be sure that all the Brading practices that are identified on your website are on the bank conveyancing panel?
The law firms on our directory have assured us via an online form that they are on the lender panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the lender panel. To date we have not been informed by either a lender or a member of the public that the data about a specific Brading conveyancing solicitor being on the bank conveyancing panel is not accurate.
