Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Park Hill

Much to our surprise we have been told by our lender that my Park Hill property lawyer is not on the mortgage company Conveyancing panel. What can I do to check?

The best course of action for you to take is to call your Park Hill conveyancer. You lawyer should advise you of the situation. Where they are not on the panel they may recommend you to a Park Hill conveyancing firm that is on the approved list of lawyers for your lender.

We are planning to acquire a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Park Hill who is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Aldermore . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Park Hill.

We had selected solicitors based in Park Hill on the Barclays solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate charge for the legal aspects of the Barclays mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Barclays?

Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your lawyer may levy a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Barclays but by your Park Hill lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Barclays panel will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.

Can I be sure that the Park Hill conveyancing solicitor on the UBS panel is any good?

When it comes to conveyancing in Park Hill getting recommendations is a sensible start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one which is cheap as chips. We would always advocate that you speak with the solicitor conducting your transaction.

I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Park Hill. My financial adviser pressured me to appoint their conveyancer. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A few days later, the conveyancer called me to say that they were not on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Yorkshire BS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

Taking into account that I am about to part with over three hundred thousand on a two bedroom apartment in Park Hill I wish to talk to a lawyer regarding thehome move before appointing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

We could not agree more - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you first talking to the lawyer due to be conducting your conveyancing in Park Hill.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is an important individual, not a matter reference. The law firms that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are provided with for your conveyancing in Park Hill should be the figure that you are charged.

I am looking at a couple of flats in Park Hill both have in the region of fifty years unexpired on the lease term. Do I need to be concerned?

There is no doubt about it. A leasehold apartment in Park Hill is a wasting asset as a result of the shortening lease. The closer the lease gets to zero years unexpired, the more it adversely affects the salability of the premises. The majority of purchasers and lenders, leases with less than 75 years become less and less marketable. On a more positive note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the property for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of a residence with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Park Hill conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. More often than not it is possible to negotiate informally with the freeholder to extend the lease. They may agree to a smaller lump sum and an increase in the ground rent, but to shorter extension terms in return. You need to ensure that the agreed terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.
