Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Skegness

We are looking to buy a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Skegness who is on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. Can you recommend a local conveyancing firm?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Bank of Ireland . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Skegness.

I am considering applying for a Nationwide mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Skegness with 70% loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Nationwide ?

There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but Nationwide will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is much more potential for delays and confusion with two solicitors involved, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.

three months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Skegness concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

How does conveyancing in Skegness differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Skegness approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because builders in Skegness typically buy the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Skegness or who has acted in the same development.

I have been recommended by numerous estate agents in Skegness to locate a conveyancer on your site. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your site ahead of a competitor’s?

We don’t make any commission for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

I am looking for a conveyancing practitioner in Skegness for my house move. Is there any facility to see a solicitor's complaints history with the legal regulator?

For information about the period before 1 January 2008, or to check a firm's history, ring 0870 606 2555, 08.00 - 18.00 any week day save for Tuesday when lines open at 9.30am.
