As opposed to 15 years ago, almost all mortgage companies no longer require their conveyancing panel lawyer to witness the borrowers signature.

Do I select a Licenced Conveyancer or Solicitor for conveyancing in Hythe?
There are two types of lawyers who can perform conveyancing in Hythe namely licenced conveyancers or solicitors.

We are due to move home in August. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you recommend a removal company in Hythe. Conveyancing firm was chosen before I stumbled across your page.
On the day of completion you can collect the keys from the property agent however this can only occur after the vendors lawyers inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you will need to tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can help you find a conveyancing in Hythe or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Hythe.
We expect to receive a AIP from UBS this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do UBS recommend any Hythe solicitors on the UBS conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Hythe solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the UBS conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and UBS through the process.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Hythe?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Hythe.

How does conveyancing in Hythe differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Hythe approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because builders in Hythe usually buy 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Hythe or who has acted in the same development.

How easy is it to change a solicitor as I need to find a Hythe based conveyancer who is on the lender conveyancing panel. Is it practical to instruct different lawyers?
If you haven't yet appointed a solicitor to do anything for you and at this stage simply received quotes, you're perfectly free to choose a different solicitor to carry out your work for you. The best way is to get recommendations from friends or family who have actually used the solicitor or conveyancer in Hythe that you're considering.
