I chose a local solicitor for our conveyancing in Gowerton today. After carefully reading the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatwe are liable for costs even if the sale aborts. Would I be best advised to instruct an internet solicitor practice advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Gowerton?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to cover the transactions that do not proceed. Dont forget that these arrangements tend not to protect you from expenditure such as Gowerton conveyancing search costs.
Finally the sale completed on my house in Gowerton last July but the buyer keeps SMS messaging daily to say his lawyer needs to hear from mine. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?
After completion of your disposal your solicitor is obliged to send the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s conveyancer. Where appropriate, your conveyancer should also send confirmation that the mortgage has been redeemed to the purchasers solicitors. There are no post completion formalities peculiar conveyancing in Gowerton.
What happens if my solicitor is removed from the Kent Reliance Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Gowerton?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Gowerton with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent told me not to tell my conveyancer about this extras as it will jeopardize my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
