Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Chase Cross

Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Chase Cross?

If you are buying a property in Chase Cross your lawyer will ask you to provide them with monies to cover the the cost of the conveyancing searches. Generally this is requested to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. If any down payment is payable against the purchase price then this should be asked for shortly in advance of exchange of contracts. Any further balance that is needed should be transferred a couple of days prior to the day of completion.

What happens if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the Skipton Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Chase Cross?

The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

We had selected conveyancers located in Chase Cross on the RBS solicitor panel. They are now charging me an additional amount for dealing with the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by RBS?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your conveyancer is entitled to charge a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by RBS but by your Chase Cross conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the RBS panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Chase Cross off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Nationwide. 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 Nationwide, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.
