Recently asked questions about conveyancing in High Peak

After what seems like an age a mortgage offer from Nationwide for the refinancing of my single bedroom apartment is coming any day now. Could you suggest a low cost conveyancing practitioner in High Peak?

You are on the wrong site if you are seeking the cheapest conveyancing in High Peak. Our goal is to offer affordable conveyancing but our intention is not to advertise as being the cheapest. Resist the temptation to appoint brokers seducing you with ninety nine pound conveyancing in High Peak. At best, in deciding on low cost conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst it will result in you with a surprising uplift in extras and still not end up with the service expected.

IfI were to buy a simple residential propertyin High Peak mortgage fee and have no survey and no conveyancing searches how much should I expect to to save on my conveyancing in High Peak?

Any savings you would achieve would be limited to the disbursement for searches. The property lawyer is required to do the vast majority of work - money laundering, correspond with your sellers property lawyer, stamp duty submission, register the property etc. A marginal saving might be made by not needing to register a charge however it will not be a lot.

My wife and I are intent on selling our property in High Peak and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any high street High Peak lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in High Peak. Having lived in High Peak for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification need.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)

3 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in High Peak completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in High Peak. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in High Peak

    The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Please supply a car parking plan. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.

My father-in-law has recommend that I instruct his lawyers for conveyancing in High Peak. Should I find my own conveyancer?

No doubt it’s preferable to choose a conveyancing solicitor is to seek referrals from friends or relatives who have used the solicitor you're are thinking of instructing.
