Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Huyton

Why would I use a Huyton conveyancing solicitors firm given that web based conveyancers are less expensive?

Its a good idea to get 2 or 3 like-for-like quotes for conveyancing costs in Huyton and you should seek a reasonable quote but don’t be focused with hunting for the lowest priced Huyton conveyancer.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the Coventry BS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Huyton?

First, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Huyton. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Leeds Building Society 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 your lender is Leeds Building Society your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Leeds Building Society. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Leeds Building Society where a lease does not comply with these specifications. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Huyton.

My wife and I are in the process of viewing apartments in Huyton and I am now considering a potential offer. Should I already have a property lawyer appointed at this stage? I will be getting a home loan with Skipton.

You should start requesting conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their details on to the EA. Given that you are seeking a mortgage with Skipton, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Skipton conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Huyton. I have a mortgage offer with Leeds Building Society. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Leeds Building Society, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel.

Me and my brother own a semi-detached Georgian property in Huyton. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Britannia. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. Is it worth asking Britannia to clarify?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Huyton and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.

I have recently had an offer accepted on a leasehold flat in Huyton and the mortgage adviser that we are using recommended his conveyancer. She quoted a thousand pounds including VAT and 3rd party costs. Does this sound expensive?

Don't just go on 1 quote. You should seek like-for-like quotes for your conveyancing in Huyton. Then pick one that you are comfortable with and crucially, is on the approved list of the bank that you have applied for a mortgage from.
