Is it the case that all Pyle CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel?
A selection of lenders now use CQS as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. The Law Society’s CQS membership however is no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. Nevertheless,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitor practices wishing to join their approved list of conveyancing solicitors.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Co-operative. Pyle conveyancing solicitors were chosen. How long does it take for Co-operative to forward the offer to the solicitor?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Co-operative done the valuation? Have you informed Co-operative as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I have instructed a Pyle conveyancing practitioner having checked that they are on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
HSBC will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually HSBC will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Pyle surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two flats in Pyle which have about forty five years unexpired on the lease term. should I be concerned?
There are plenty of short leases in Pyle. The lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the premises for a period of time. As a lease shortens the saleability of the lease deteriorates and it becomes more costly to extend the lease. This is why it is advisable to increase the term of the lease. Sometimes it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage companies may be unwilling to lend money on such properties. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We recommend you get professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this area.

What is the reason for new build conveyancing in Pyle being more expensive?
Buying a new build property is completely distinct from the normal house buying conveyancing in Pyle. For a start developers normally require contracts to exchange very quickly, so there is a lot of pressure on your lawyer to ensure everything is in order. In addition new build conveyancing often necessitate examination of adoption of highways, drains, planning considerations, building warranties or architects certificates. Mortgage company requirements are also more demanding. Taking into account the complex nature of the process for these types of properties, the conveyancing new build fees are higher than normal.
