Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hoylake

I am nearing exchange of contracts for my flat in Hoylake and the estate agent has just text me to say that the buyers are appointing a new law firm. The excuse is that the bank will only engage with solicitors on their conveyancing panel. On what basis would a big named mortgage company only work with certain law firms rather the firm that they want to appoint to handle their conveyancing in Hoylake ?

Lenders have always had panels of law firms they are content to work with, but in the last few years big names such as Yorkshire Building Society, have reviewed and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have acted for them for over 25 years.

Mortgage companies point to the increase in fraud by way of justification for the cull – criteria have been narrowed as a smaller panel is easier to oversee. No lender will say how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society says it is being contacted daily by practices that have been removed from panels. Some are unaware that they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. Your purchasers are not going to have any impact on this.

I am need of leasehold conveyancing for an apartment in a fairly new development (6 years old) in Hoylake. Almost all the flats are already occupied. Do I need carry out the conveyancing searches for my conveyancing in Hoylake?

You are putting yourself at risk in failing carrying out Hoylake conveyancing searches. Without searches you have no clarity over flooding, environmental etc which may mean you walk away due to potential problems down the line. If you are buying without a mortgage there is no legal requirement to have them, but we would strongly advise in no uncertain terms that you have them. Where time pressures and cost are primary issues you should consider with your solicitor about the options such as contingency insurance available to you

We note that you have a post code search directory listing law firms on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a referral fee if I retain them for our conveyancing in Hoylake?

We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in Hoylake.

I can see plenty of here concerning conveyancing in Hoylake but what is your top tip for finding the right conveyancer in Hoylake

Do not opt for the cheapest Hoylake conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

How can we know in advance if a Hoylake conveyancing solicitor on the Principality panel is any good?

When it comes to conveyancing in Hoylake seeking recommendations is a good starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one which is cheap as chips. We would always advocate that you speak with the lawyer handling your transaction.

We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from TSB as we want to conduct alterations to our home in Hoylake. Are we obliged to choose a bricks and mortar Hoylake solicitor on the TSB conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

TSB don't usually appoint a member of their approved list of lawyers to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the TSB conveyancing panel.

Just bought a terraced house in Hoylake , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Hoylake conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain the registration formalities are addressed.

As far as conveyancing in Hoylake registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. At present approximately 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Registration is effected after the new owner is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not always primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Hoylake is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Hoylake are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Hoylake you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hoylake may determine 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 premises.
