Recently asked questions about conveyancing in North End

We selected a local solicitor for my conveyancing in North End today. Looking through the Terms and Conditions it is apparent thatI am responsible for costs even where the transaction does not complete. Should I ditch them and use a web based firm who offer no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in North End?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to counteract the conveyances that fail to complete. Dont forget that such promotions rarely cover expenditure by way of example North End conveyancing search costs.

The vendors of the property we are hoping to buy have appointed a conveyancing solicitor in North End who has insisted on a preliminary agreement with a deposit of 5k. Are such contracts promoted for North End conveyancing transactions?

This type of arrangement is not the norm in North End, conveyancers will often sway clients away from them as they divert attention from the primary focus, namely conveyancing and if you end up losing your deposit then the solicitor at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. Furthermore, there is no assurance that just because the owner has entered into an exclusivity agreement they will sell to you. They may be inclined to break the contract if they are offered a large enough financial inducement to do so because a wronged buyer with the benefit of a exclusivitycontract will still be legally obliged to show losses as a consequence of the breach and this may not equate the financial upside that the owner may secure by breaching the agreement, however morally unworthy it undoubtedly is.

We see that you have a search directory listing solicitors on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a referral fee if I retain them for our conveyancing in North End?

We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in North End.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Santander. North End conveyancing lawyers are appointed. How long does it take for Santander to issue the offer to the conveyancer?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Santander completed the valuation? Have you informed Santander as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Santander conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

My fiancee and I are in the process of looking at houses in North End and I am about to put in an offer. Should I already have a lawyer appointed at this point? I am planning to take a home loan with Nationwide.

It would be sensible to instigate your search sooner rather than later. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their contact information on to the estate agent. Given that you are seeking a mortgage with Nationwide, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.

Skipton have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a apartment in North End has been accepted, now what?

Your property agent will want to be informed of your conveyancer's details (ensure that the lawyers are on the lender’s panel). Contact Skipton or your financial adviser and finalise any outstanding forms. Skipton will appoint a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or seller to arrange a time for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. Skipton will issue the offer to you and your conveyancing practitioners. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in North End.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our house are lost. The solicitors who handled the conveyancing in North End 5 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?

As long as the title is registered the details of your ownership will be held by the Land Registry with a Title Number. It is possible to conduct a search at the Land Registry, find your property and secure up to date copies of the property title for a small fee. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases retain a certified copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for twenty pounds.

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in North End ahead of retaining conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. The surveyor has said that some banks tend not give a mortgage on such a house.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Bank of Scotland has different requirements from Halifax. Should you wish to telephone us we can investigate further with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in North End. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
