Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Heanor

I am in the process of selling my maisonette in Heanor and the estate agent has just telephoned to say that the purchasers are swapping solicitor. I am told that this is due to the fact that the mortgage company will only deal with solicitors on their conveyancing panel. On what basis would a big named lender only work with certain law firms rather the firm that they want to select for their conveyancing in Heanor ?

UK lenders have always had panels of law firms they are willing to work with, but in recent years big names such as Nationwide, have considered and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have represented them for over 25 years.

Lenders point to the increase in fraud as the reason for the cull – criteria have been tightened as a smaller panel is easier to monitor. No lender will say how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society says it is hearing daily from firms that have been removed from panels. Some do not even realise they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. Your buyers are not going to have any impact on this.

Why do I have to pay up front for my conveyancing in Heanor?

If you are buying a property in Heanor your solicitor will ask you put them with monies to cover the search fees. This will be the total of the cost of the Local Authority Search. If any down payment is as part of the purchase price then this will be needed immediately in advance of contracts are exchanged. The final balance that is needed will be payable a few days prior to the day of completion.

Do I have to pop into the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Heanor so that I can attend their offices if required.

Whereas this was necessary twenty years ago, almost all lenders no longer oblige their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the mortgagors signature. It will still be necessary for you to hand over ID documents and there are still distinct benefits to using a local ayer, in your situation a conveyancing solicitor in Heanor.

I'm buying my first flat in Heanor with a loan from National Westminster Bank. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not disclose to my lawyer about the deal as it will impact my loan with National Westminster Bank. 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.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the selling agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we use their preferred conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Heanor

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. If they require ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine buyer is not the way to achieve this. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to use your own,trusted Heanor conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets set by head office.
