We are only a couple days away from an exchange on a flat in Immingham and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my solicitor. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the mortgage company concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to hold matters up?
Your solicitor is obliged to clarify with the bank to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only disclose this to your bank if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
As someone not used to the Immingham conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can give me for the legal transfer of property in Immingham
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Immingham and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of opportunity for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the vendor, selling agent and sometimes the bank. Choosing a law firm for your conveyancing in Immingham is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the process whose role it is to look after your legal interests and to keep you safe.
Every so often a potential adversary will attempt to sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the property agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your lawyer is wrong. Or your mortgage broker may tell you to do take action that is against your lawyers advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my property can not be found. The lawyers who did the conveyancing in Immingham 4 years ago are no longer around. What do I do?
Nowadays there are copies made of almost everything, and your conveyancer should know exactly where to look for all the appropriate paperwork so you may purchase or sell your property without a hitch. If duplicates can’t be found, your conveyancer can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities against possible claims on your premises.
