My fiance and I are intent on acquiring a flat in Lamorbey. My Conveyancer has never been on on the lender conveyancing list. Is it possible for me to retain my Lamorbey conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank approved list?
One will need to use a solicitor to complete the formalities when you take out a loan to buy your property. They will carry out all the relevant investigations on the property, make sure that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage paperwork is in place.

Nevertheless, if the solicitor selected is not on the mortgage company solicitor panel supplemental charges will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them.

How does conveyancing in Lamorbey differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Lamorbey contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because developers in Lamorbey usually acquire 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 conveyancers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Lamorbey or who has acted in the same development.
