I am planning to move property in June. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Rugby. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen prior to coming across your website.
On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from your property agent but this can only be done after the previous owners solicitors inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released. You should tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can help you locate a conveyancing in Rugby or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Rugby.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Rugby. I have a mortgage agreed with TSB. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with TSB, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the TSB conveyancing panel.
The deeds to our property can not be found. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Rugby 10 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?
These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your lawyer should be aware exactly where to look for all the appropriate paperwork so you may buy or sell your house without a hitch. If duplicates can’t be located, your lawyer can put in place insurance or indemnities against possible claims on your premises.
How does conveyancing in Rugby differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Rugby approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because house builders in Rugby tend to purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Rugby or who has acted in the same development.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent informed us that the seller will only proceed if we instruct their preferred solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor who is familiar with conveyancing in Rugby
We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Contact the owners directly and make sure they understand (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Rugby conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or meet his conveyancing targets pre-set by corporate headquarters.
