My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Dymock. I I would like to check if they are on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd approved list of lawyers. Could you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
The first thing to do is call the conveyancer and ask them if they can act for the bank. Alternatively you can call Godiva Mortgages Ltd who may be able to confirm.
We are planning to move house in September. Will my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Dymock. Conveyancing solicitor was organised prior to coming across this page.
On the day of completion you will need to pick up the keys from your estate agent however this should only be done when the previous owners conveyancers inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be passed over. After that you should advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. We do not recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Dymock or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Dymock.
My wife and I purchasing a victorian detached house in Dymock. The intention is to convert the garage to a playroom at the house.Will the conveyancing process include enquiries to see if these works are permitted?
Your property lawyer will check the deeds as conveyancing in Dymock can sometimes identify restrictions in the title deeds which restrict categories of alterations or need the consent of another owner. Some additions call for local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Many areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
I am being told by my conveyancer that absentee landlord insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Dymock conveyancing?
The appropriate level of absentee landlord indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Santander and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.
I am downsizing from our property in Dymock and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed an internet conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Dymock. Having lived in Dymock for 5 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Dymock?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Dymock. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Dymock prior to instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may not issue a mortgage on such a premises.
It depends who your proposed lender is. Lloyds has different instructions for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you contact us we can check via the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Dymock. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
