Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Gipsy Hill

My fiance and I are planning to purchase a house in Gipsy Hill and have instructed a Gipsy Hill conveyancing practice. Within the last couple of days our solicitor has forwarded the sale agreement to be signed with a detailed report with a view to exchanging next week. Clydesdale have this morning contacted us to advise us that there is now an issue as our Gipsy Hill solicitor is not on their conveyancing panel. Is this a problem?

When purchasing a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is standard for the purchasers' lawyers to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your solicitor should contact your bank and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on the bank's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Gipsy Hill solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.

Do the conveyancing solicitors listed on your site conduct attended exchange conveyancing in Gipsy Hill?

There are a few conveyancing specialists carrying out attended exchanges. Do contact us to get a costs illustration and details as to dates.

Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Gipsy Hill?

If you are buying a property in Gipsy Hill your solicitor will ask you place them with funds to cover the the cost of the conveyancing searches. Generally this is asked for to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. If any deposit is payable against the purchase price then this will be needed immediately before exchange of contracts. The closing balance that is needed should be sent to your lawyer shortly before completion.

Should commercial conveyancing searches disclose proposed roadworks that could affect a commercial estate in Gipsy Hill?

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Gipsy Hill will execute a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers invest in investigating accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Gipsy Hill. The report provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Gipsy Hill.

For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Gipsy Hill it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. Failure to identify developments where adoption procedures have not been addressed adequately could cause delays to Gipsy Hill commercial conveyancing transactions as well as pose a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not carried out for domestic conveyancing in Gipsy Hill.

I purchased a terraced Georgian house in Gipsy Hill. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and HSBC Bank. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Gipsy Hill and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.

As co-executor for the estate of my grandfather I am disposing of a house in Monmouth but reside in Gipsy Hill. My solicitor (based 235 miles awayrequires that I sign a stat dec prior to completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Gipsy Hill to attest this legal document for me?

Technically speaking you should not be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally any notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are located in Gipsy Hill
