My friend's mother is a conveyancer. I expect that I will receive mate’s fee for conveyancing, but if not, what kind of fees should I be paying for conveyancing in Lymm?
You should contrast pricing. Do use our comparison tool on this page. Whilst prices will be different but service levels do differ between property lawyers as is the case with the vast majority of professional services.
I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and must be out of my rented apartment in Lymm by 11/9/2024. Conveyancing on my purchase has just started. Can I complete in 4 weeks as I wish to avoid having to move into short term accommodation?
The normal practice is not to give notice on a rental unless your lawyer suggests that you should. If you have not previously done so, update to your conveyancer and ask them to they cajole the sellers lawyers, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will look to achieve
We are aiming to move property in October. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Lymm. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across this page.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from the estate agent but this should only take place once the sellers solicitors advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. Subsequently you can tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a conveyancing in Lymm or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Lymm.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with TSB. Lymm conveyancing lawyers were instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from TSB?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have TSB completed the valuation? Have you informed TSB as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the TSB conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I currently have a mortgage with Nottingham for my property in Lymm. Conveyancing has been completed 12 months ago. Should I wish to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Nottingham?
Your original mortgage agreement with Nottingham will provide that you need their approval prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Nottingham’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Nottingham will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Nottingham directly. You need not do this via a Nottingham conveyancing panel solicitor.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Lymm with a mortgage from Barnsley Building Society. The developers would not budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not inform my solicitor about this extras as it could adversely affect my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.
I'm refinancing my current house to a buy to let mortgage with Coventry Building Society and intend to use the remaining equity as a deposit on another house.
