What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Griffithstown

There are many recorded licenced Conveyancers in Griffithstown and Solicitor partnerships in Griffithstown who can help with your conveyancing We would stress that the two are regulated professionals specialising in the legal aspects of transferring property. Both can deal with associated property related work such as remortgage conveyancing, lease extensions and transfer of equity conveyancing.

This question may be naive but I am unexperienced as a 1st time purchaser of a ground floor flat in Griffithstown. Do I pick up the keys to the property on the completion date from my conveyancer? If this is the case, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Griffithstown?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the completion advance to the owner’s solicitors, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be able to collect the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.

I am buying a property in Griffithstown. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Co-operative have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Co-operative your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions set out in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Co-operative. The CML Handbook includes minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Co-operative where a lease does not meet these requirements. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Griffithstown.

Will our lawyer be raising enquiries regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Griffithstown.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers dealing with homes in Griffithstown. Some people will buy a house in Griffithstown, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory insurance cover, or sell the premises. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the purchaser.

Lawyers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a numerous checks that can be initiated by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which should give them a better understanding of the risks in Griffithstown. The standard information sent to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual question of the seller to determine if the property has historically flooded. If the premises has been flooded in past and is not notified by the owner, then a purchaser may bring a legal claim for losses as a result of such an incorrect reply. The purchaser’s lawyers should also commission an enviro report. This should higlight whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations will need to be made.

I moved into my home on 10 February and my personal details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Griffithstown expressed confidence that it should be recorded in less than a month. Are transfers in Griffithstown particularly slow to register?

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Griffithstown registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the property therefore 'speed' is not typically an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I am looking into buying my first house which is in Griffithstown and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Griffithstown. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Griffithstown area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?

Rather than looking online forget looking online you should go and have a look at Griffithstown. In the meantime here are some basic statistics that we found

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Griffithstown. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Griffithstown - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I invested in buying a ground floor flat in Griffithstown, conveyancing having been completed 5 years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Equivalent properties in Griffithstown with over 90 years remaining are worth £176,000. The ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease runs out on 21st October 2075

You have 50 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £31,400 and £36,200 plus legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
