I am hoping to receive a mortgage with Halifax. My intention is to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Lake. Does the Halifax Conveyancing panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Halifax approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
I am under pressure from the mortgagee in possession of a property in Lake to complete within four weeks. What can I do to expedite matters?
First, If the seller is applying a tight deadline to exchange we would recommend that your conveyancer is familiar with the area as they will have local connections and know-how. It is possible that they may have handled otherhouses in the same street. Therefore consider using a Lake conveyancing lawyer. In addition, double check that the lawyer is on the on the approved list for your mortgage company. It is believed that 18% of Lake conveyancing deals are held up or derailed after discovering a buyer’s solicitor was not on their banks member panel. In many cases this discovery resulted in the legal transfer of property being delayed by as much as 21 days. It is claimed that this issue affects approximately one hundred thousand home sales every year. Almost all Lake conveyancing firms can not represent certain banks so do check as early as possible.
We are selling our home in Lake and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Lake. We have lived in Lake for six years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)
I bought my flat on 4 October and my personal details are still not on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Lake expressed confidence that it will be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in Lake particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Lake is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry have to notify any 3rd persons or bodies. As of today in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration takes place once the purchaser is living at the property thus post completion formalities is not usually an essential issue yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Lake. Conveyancing is necessary evil 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 is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Lake
-
Please supply a car parking plan. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. 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.
