We note that you have a post code search directory listing solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a commission if I instruct them for our conveyancing in Lower Clapton?
We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in Lower Clapton.
I am selling our house in Lower Clapton and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a nationwide conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Lower Clapton. Having lived in Lower Clapton for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You must 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 life insurance to cover that same illness)
How does conveyancing in Lower Clapton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Lower Clapton come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because builders in Lower Clapton usually buy the real estate, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Lower Clapton or who has acted in the same development.
I decided to have a survey carried out on a house in Lower Clapton in advance of retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. The surveyor has said that some lenders will not grant a loan on such a house.
It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different requirements from Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can check via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Lower Clapton. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Lower Clapton to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

We suggest that you only ask your property lawyer to start work and submit searches after the offer has been accepted on the property especially as Lower Clapton conveyancing searches are not inexpensive.
