Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Enfield

Having sold my house in Enfield last February yet the purchaser is e-mailing daily to say their lawyer is waiting to hear from mine. What should have happened following completion?

Following your house sale your lawyer should forward the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. Depending on the transaction, your conveyancer should also send confirmation that the mortgage has been discharged to the purchasers lawyers. There are no post completion formalities just for conveyancing in Enfield.

I am told that my conveyancing solicitors will need to check that the building insurance when buying a house in Enfield. My lender is The Mortgage Works

The Mortgage Works have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook. As of 3/8/2026, the requirements read as follows :

My wife and I are purchasing a property in Enfield. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a conveyancer? At some point we have to send money into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our deposit?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

We previously chose conveyancing lawyers based in Enfield on the RBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a separate sum for dealing with the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by RBS?

Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your property lawyer is entitled to levy a fee for this. This charge is not set by RBS but by your Enfield conveyancing practitioner. Some firms on the RBS panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but plenty of practices incorporate it on their overall fee.

We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from Nationwide as we intend to carry out alterations to our house in Enfield. Do we need to choose a local Enfield solicitor on the Nationwide conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

Nationwide do not ordinarily instruct firms on their approved list of lawyers to handle the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.

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

A search of this type is occasionally quoted for as part of the standard Enfield conveyancing searches. It is a large report of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out important information about Enfield around the property and the people living there. It incorporates 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, Enfield Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information regarding Enfield.

It has been 3 months following my purchase conveyancing in Enfield took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

About to purchase a new build apartment in Enfield. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Enfield

    Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?
