The Immingham conveyancing firm that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Immingham have without warning closed. I only went with them because I needed a firm on the UBS conveyancing panel and my family Immingham lawyer was not. I paid them funds on account. What are my options?
If you have an estate agent involved then let them know immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the UBS conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to assist.
We are purchasing a apartment in Immingham. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a lawyer? On completion day we will need to deposit our life savings into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our deposit?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
There are plenty of conveyancing solicitors in Immingham but how do I know who I should use?
We would encourage you not to go for the cheapest Immingham conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. 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.
This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Immingham. Do I collect the keys to the property on the completion date from my conveyancer? If so, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Immingham?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s solicitors, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be able to pick up the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen early afternoon.
I have todaybecome aware that Stirling Law have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Immingham for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 10 months ago. How can I check that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest method to see if the property is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Immingham conveyancing specialists.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one close by in Immingham I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Immingham in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
We are one month into a freehold purchase having been recommend to a firm by the estate agent to do our conveyancing in Immingham. We are not happy. Can you help me find new conveyancers?
A solicitor would need to be really bad in order to consider diss instructing them. Has your mortgage been sent? In the event that it has you will need to make them aware of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are re-sent.
