The sellers of the home we are purchasing have appointed a conveyancing practitioner in Limehouse who has insisted on a preliminary contract with a down payment 10k. Are such agreements sensible?

Lock out agreements are agreements binding a property seller and prospective buyer granting the buyer a ‘clear field’ to purchase the premises for a certain period of time. For all intents and purposes, a lock out is a document stating that you will have a contract at a later date which is the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be used for buyer assurance though in some cases, the seller may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are various pros and cons to having them but you should to check with your conveyancer but note that it may result in costing you more in conveyancing charges. For this these contracts are unusual when it comes to conveyancing in Limehouse.

When does exchange of contracts happen for purchase conveyancing in Limehouse and do I need to be at the conveyancers branch?

If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Limehouse you are invited in to sign documents. However, the law practices we work with provide a nationwide conveyancing service and give just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not the critical part. A signed contract simply enables the conveyancer to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Limehouse)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

I am buying a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Limehouse who is on the Platform Home Loans Ltd solicitor. Can you recommend a local conveyancing firm?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Platform Home Loans Ltd in certain locations such as Limehouse. We dont recommend any particular firm.

I am buying a new build house in Limehouse with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The property agent suggested that I not disclose to my solicitor about the extras as it could impact my loan with Accord Mortgages Ltd. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

What are my options where I am not happy with the solicitor who conducted our conveyancing in Limehouse?

Occasionally the level of service you receive is not as you expect, and unfortunately sometimes things do go wrong. Nevertheless there is recourse if you were unhappy with your conveyancing in Limehouse. This varies from trying to resolve matters directly with them, through to reporting a conveyancing practitioner to their governing body. If things still aren’t resolved you may consider enlisting the help of the Legal Ombudsman.
