I am buying a house without a mortgage in Fowey. I have been residing for the last Seventeen years in Fowey. Conveyancing searches are expensive. Given that I have knowledge of the area and road intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a home loan, then the vast majority of the Fowey conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your solicitor will 'advise', no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches completed, but he has a professional duty to do this. Do take into account; if you are likely to dispose of the house at a future date, it will be of interest to your prospective purchaser what the searches reveal. On occasion properties with functional issues can still reveal unpredicted search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Fowey will provide you some practical advice concerning this.
I am aiming to move home in June. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Fowey. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen before I stumbled across your site.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from your property agent but this can only take place when the sellers conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be handed over. Subsequently you will need to tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. We do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can assist you in choosing a conveyancing in Fowey or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Fowey.
I can not fathom if my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called my Fowey bank branch on a couple of occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Fowey conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they would not lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.
Provided that the solicitor is on the mortgage company panel, they must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
I was told three weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by RBS. Is it usual for RBS to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Fowey is approved on their conveyancing panel? RBS have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
A lender would not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for RBS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the RBS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

As far as conveyancing in Fowey registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any other parties. As of today roughly three quarters of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration is effected once the new owner has moved in to the premises thus registration formalities is not usually top priority yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
