Do the Building Society Association intend to launch a online directory to list practices on the Norwich and Peterborough Building Society conveyancing panel for example in Frizington?
We have not been informed any intention on the part of the BSA to promote such a search facility.
is it true that all Frizington conveyancing solicitors on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Some banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such firms would be overseen by the CLC.
I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Clydesdale. Is it usual for Clydesdale to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Frizington is approved on their conveyancing panel? Clydesdale 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 Clydesdale to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
At last I have had an offer on a flat in Frizington accepted, the vendors do nevertheless have a dependent purchase. The vendors have placed an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Frizington. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with RBS started?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (home loan application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Frizington conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the RBS conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the specifics of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some buyers will apply for a home loan with RBS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with searches.
We are downsizing from our home in Frizington and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers used a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Frizington. Having lived in Frizington for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You must check with 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)
I have justfound out that Action Conveyancing have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Frizington for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I check that my home is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to see if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Frizington conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Frizington differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Frizington come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Frizington tend to buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Frizington or who has acted in the same development.
