Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hessle

My partner and I have recently acquired a house in Hessle. We have noticed several problems with the property which we believe were missed in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? Can you clarify the nature of searches that should have been conducted for conveyancing in Hessle?

It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Hessle. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner answers a document known as a SPIF. If the information ends up being incorrect, then you may have a claim against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Hessle.

How does conveyancing in Hessle differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Hessle come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because builders in Hessle usually acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Hessle or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Hessle before instructing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. Our surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may refuse to grant a mortgage on a flying freehold home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. HSBC has different instructions for example to Nationwide. Should you wish to call us we can check with the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Hessle. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

We're first time buyers - agreed a price, but the selling agent advised that the vendor will only issue a contract if we use the agent's recommended solicitors as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Hessle

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this requirement. Should the owner require ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to appoint your own,trusted Hessle conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give their estate agent a referral fee or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by corporate headquarters.

I have just appointed agents to market my basement flat in Hessle. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently received a yearly service charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?

It best that you clear the service charge as normal because all rents and maintenance payments should be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
