My financial adviser says he needs my Liverpool law firm’s panel member for the HSBC conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I discover this. I have called my local Liverpool branch but they have not got back to me yet.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Liverpool property lawyer . They should have a central record lender panel numbers.
I am selling our house in Liverpool and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Liverpool conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers are using a national conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Liverpool. Having lived in Liverpool for six years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You should check with 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 illness)
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Liverpool. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.
Here are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Liverpool
-
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. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one near me in Liverpool I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Liverpool suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you need a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
My husband and I are 3 weeks into a freehold purchase having been referred to a firm by the high street agent to carry out the conveyancing in Liverpool. I am not happy. Can you you assist me in finding new conveyancers?
A conveyancer would have to be really poor to suggest replacing them. Has the loan offer been generated? If so you need to inform them of the new contact details and ensure the mortgage documents are re-issued. Your new solicitor ideally should be on the banks approved list to avoid escalating costs and delays. That should be your first question of the new solicitors.
