I have just started taking steps with a view to changing my current residential home loan to a Buy to Let Yorkshire Building Society mortgage. The bank has said that I require a solicitor as part of the process. I had a chat my past Marshfield conveyancing firm who dealt with the legals when I originally purchased the property. The quote provided of £575 plus disbursements is surprising as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.
The quote is slightly on the expensive side. If you you were to look around you may be able to reduce the fees marginally by say a hundred pounds. That being said, providing that you were satisfied with the service the firm provided you mightlive to rue opting for an a cheaper solicitor. Don't forget to enquire the firm can represent Yorkshire Building Society.

Last January we completed a house move in Marshfield. We have noticed several problems with the house which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been conducted for conveyancing in Marshfield?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Marshfield. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller completes a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers is incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Marshfield.
My husband and I are hoping to buy a 3 bedroom flat in Marshfield with a residential mortgage from Virgin Money.We like our Marshfield conveyancing lawyer but Virgin Money advised that her practice is not on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a Virgin Money panel lawyer or keep our local solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Virgin Money use our lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The loan issued to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that solicitors must be on the Virgin Money approved list. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Virgin Money
How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my business property in Marshfield and how can you help?
The 1954 Act gives security of tenure to business tenants, granting the right to make a request to court for a renewal lease and remain in occupation at the end of the lease term. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing practices who use the act to your advantage and handle your commercial conveyancing in Marshfield
Am I better off to appoint a Marshfield conveyancing lawyer in close proximity to the house I am hoping to buy? An old friend can carry out the legal work however his firm is located approximately 350miles away.
The primary upside of using a local Marshfield conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to sign paperwork, present your identification documents and apply pressure on them if necessary. Having local Marshfield know how is a bonus. However it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If if people you trust instructed your friend and the majority were happy that must outweigh using an unknown Marshfield conveyancing solicitor just because they are local.
I am purchasing a flat mortgage free. My conveyancer has been given with 2 separate forms of photo ID, bank statement, numerous utility bills. Now he wants a copy from a probate lawyer advising that the money is legitimate and that it has come from inheritance and not via illegitimate means.
