I am looking for value for money property lawyer. Do I opt for a nationwide conveyancer rather than a high street Park Royal conveyancing lawyer?
Generally conveyancing practitioners in your location will benefit from strong relationships with your local authority, which could assist with your Park Royal conveyancing searches that your solicitor will need to carry out. It also helps if they enjoy existing connections with the Land Registry in your area Park Royal, other property lawyers in the neighbourhood and Park Royal property agents.
There are numerous conveyancing solicitors in Park Royal but how do I know who's good?
Do not opt for the cheapest Park Royal conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of time.
Is there a list of Barclays panel conveyancers in Park Royal on the Building Society Association’s Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such facility on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. Very few lenders make their panel listings viewable online. If you are looking for a Park Royal conveyancing practitioner on the Barclays please make the most of our facility.
I have paid off my mortgage with Yorkshire BS. I assume I don't need a Park Royal property lawyer on the Yorkshire BS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Yorkshire BS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Yorkshire BS mortgage from the register. Yorkshire BS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Yorkshire BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Yorkshire BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I purchased a terraced Victorian house in Park Royal. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and The Mortgage Works. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Park Royal and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.
I am buying a new build apartment in Park Royal. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.
Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Park Royal
-
There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. 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. Please supply a car parking plan. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

In my capacity as executor for the will of my grandmother I am selling a property in Newport but live in Park Royal. My solicitor (approximately 260 miles awayrequires that I sign a statutory declaration before the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing lawyer in Park Royal who can witness this legal document for me?
strictly speaking you are not likely to be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally or notary public or solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are based in Park Royal
