I am hoping to receive a mortgage offer from Santander. My intention is to retain the legal services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Northampton. Does the Santander Solicitor panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?

The Santander conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

We are about to sign contracts for a ground floor flat in Northampton. We encountered a stumbling block. Our loan offer with Barnsley Building Society runs out on 12/10/2026 but the vendors are suggesting a completion date of 14/10/2026. Is it possible to prolong the mortgage offer?

The best person to address this issue is your solicitors who will assess whether they better off negotiating with the lender, owner’s conveyancers, estate agents or indeed all three given the history of your conveyancing to date.

Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Northampton

    The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

Given that I am about to part with hundreds of thousands of pounds on a garden flat in Northampton I would like to have a conversation with the conveyancer concerning thehome move prior to instructing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

This is something that we recommend - we would be happy to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you liaising with the conveyancer due to be carrying out your property ownership legalities in Northampton.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is an important person, not a file reference. The solicitors that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are quoted for residential conveyancing in Northampton should be the amount on the final invoice that you are charged.

What could I expect to pay for conveyancing in Northampton?

Almost all Northampton conveyancing practices will agree to a standard fee. Where additional work arise during the conveyancing your property lawyer must disclose to you in writing of any extra fees for any work immediately it becomes foreseeable. Some work on a no completion no cost principle, others will charge a proportion of the set charges, depending on the point at which the matter does not go ahead.

It is advisable to seek various firms to give you an estimate.
