When will exchange of contracts take place for domestic conveyancing in Sandbach and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
If you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Sandbach you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend provide a countrywide conveyancing service and give just as detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email.

A signed contract simply enables the solicitor to exchange contracts when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Sandbach)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Sandbach. I have a mortgage agreed with Yorkshire BS. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use 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.

I can not fathom if my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Sandbach building society branch on various occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they will lend. My Sandbach conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they would not lend in accordance with their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
Your conveyancer must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook section two requirements for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
