Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Mudeford

I am not in a position to travel far from Mudeford. What is the rationale as to why all Mudeford solicitors aren't included on all bank panels?

A decade ago most lenders had an attitude to risk which differs from the current day. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 conducted a thematic review into property fraud which concluded: know the lawyers on your panel. As a result, mortgage companies have since soughtmore data from law firms about their processes and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum amount of transactions. Thousands of law practices have found themselves excluded from lender panels even though they had an exemplary track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Such firms were never going to meet the criteria of amount of transactions the lenders set.

Due to move into my new home in Mudeford next Tuesday. I have now been asked to send a copy of my building insurance schedule by my solicitor as he says that he has to check this in his capacity as lawyer for the mortgage company. What does the insurance need to cover?

Any lawyer on acting for mortgage companies would need to check that the following risks are covered fire; lightning; aircraft; explosion; earthquake; storm; flood; escape of water or oil; riot; malicious damage; theft or attempted theft; falling trees and branches and aerials; subsidence; heave;landslip;collision;accidental damage to underground services;professional fees, demolition and site clearance costs; and public liability to anyone else. There are some other issues such as the level of excess that are set out in a lender’s UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. These requirements are not specific to conveyancing in Mudeford.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our home can not be found. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Mudeford 10 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?

In today’s world there are duplicates made of almost everything, and your solicitor should know precisely where to locate all the relevant paperwork so you may purchase or dispose of your property without any difficulty. If duplicates can’t be found, your solicitor can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against future claims on your premises.

How does conveyancing in Mudeford differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Mudeford contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Mudeford tend to purchase the site, 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 property lawyers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Mudeford or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one close by in Mudeford I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Mudeford suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan that many years will be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

I need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor for leasehold conveyancing in Mudeford. I've land on a site which appears to be the perfect answer If there is a chance to get all the legals completed via email that would be preferable. Should I be wary? What should out be looking out for?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
