Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Eastwood

I am not well enough to travel far from Eastwood. Is there a reason why all Eastwood property lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?

Even though it may seem unfair for mortgage companies to limit who can act for them, from the public’s or conveyancer’s perspective, the the contrary view is that lenders are increasingly anxious and consider it crucial to protect them from illegal activities. As a result of this concern lenders are limiting their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a size that they are happy to control.

The vendors of the home we are looking to purchase have instructed a conveyancing firm in Eastwood who has recommended a lock out contract with a payment 10k. Are such agreements sensible?

There are a couple of primary drawbacks with signing a lock out contract (also referred to as an exclusivity agreement) is that it diverts attention away from making progress with the conveyancing transaction itself, so unless it requires minimal or no negotiation then it could transpire to be a hindrance. It is not strongly advocated by Eastwood conveyancing lawyers for this reason. A further negative is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved buyer should not expect to be granted injunctive relief to stop the seller completing the sale to a third party, so the only remedy open via the agreement will be the reimbursement of wasted charges and, in limited scenarios, the extra payment of damages.

Do I need to visit the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Eastwood so that I can attend their offices when needed.

As opposed to twenty years ago, the vast majority banks no longer require their conveyancing panel lawyer to witness the borrowers signature.

We are getting the release of further monies on our mortgage from Aldermore as we want to conduct renovations to our house in Eastwood. Are we obliged to select a nearby Eastwood solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

Aldermore don't usually require a member of their approved list of lawyers to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.

I am expecting a DIP from Clydesdale this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Clydesdale recommend any Eastwood solicitors on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Eastwood solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Clydesdale through the process.
