Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Irlam

Is there a reason to use a Irlam conveyancing solicitors firm given that internet based conveyancers are more affordable?

By all means make sure that you compare conveyancing costs in Irlam and you should seek a reasonable quote but don’t become consumed with scouring the internet for the lowest priced Irlam conveyancer. Identifying the right conveyancer can be the difference between a smooth and a distressing house move. It is important that you ensure that you have expert advice from an experienced lawyer. Emails can't be as helpful as a telephone call and can never replicate a one to one consultation. The firms that we work with will appoint you a qualified and top rated conveyancing solicitor who can deal with your conveyancing from beginning to end, providing a level of continuity that you rarely receive from an web based conveyancer. Our lawyers will update you as to headway and keep you informed. Should it ever be necessary to contact the office you will know who you need to speak to and we'll be sure you are kept fully informed.

Various online forums that I have visited warn that are a common cause of delay in Irlam house deals. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the common causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Searches are unlikely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in Irlam.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Irlam?

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Irlam. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Irlam. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Here are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Irlam

    Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

Should I be concerned that estate agents that I am dealing with are recommending an online conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Irlam conveyancing company?

As with many service providers, often suggestions from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Yet there are numerous parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders may put forward solicitors to retain. Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there may be a commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to select your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that the majority of banks specify a panel list of solicitors you have to use for the lender aspect of your home move.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent informed us that the seller will only go ahead if we use their chosen lawyers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Irlam

We suspect that the seller is not behind this ultimatum. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the owners directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to use your preferred Irlam conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthe ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or meet his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by HQ.
