As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Greasby what is the number one tip you can give me for the ownership transfer in Greasby

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Greasby or throughout Merseyside is often a confrontational process.

I am buying a terraced house in Greasby. Conveyancing solicitors are said to be ‘a necessary evil’ but can I do it myself?

Leaving aside the complexities and merits of DIY conveyancing in Greasby you will have to appoint a solicitor on your mortgage company's conveyancing panel to look after their interests.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unseasoned as a 1st time purchaser of a two bedroom flat in Greasby. Do I receive the keys to the house on the completion date from my lawyer? If so, I will find a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Greasby?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the completion advance to the seller's lawyers, and once they have received this, you will be invited to receive the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this happens early afternoon.

Please help - my lawyer says that defective lease insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Greasby?

The right level of defective lease indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Birmingham Midshires and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Skipton are being problematic. The Greasby solicitor who is on the Skipton conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Skipton are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Skipton have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Skipton have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Skipton may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

    Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Greasby is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Greasby are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Greasby you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Greasby may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
