When does exchange of contracts happen for residential conveyancing in Preston Park and do I need to be at the lawyers office?
Where you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Preston Park you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. However, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply a countrywide conveyancing service and give just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally.

The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Preston Park)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

After what seems like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Preston Park accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on on an apartment, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats booked. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Preston Park. What should be my next step? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Preston Park conveyancing search costs, etc). The first course of action is to check that your lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many buyers will apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Preston Park.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Preston Park is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Preston Park are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Preston Park you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Preston Park may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
