Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Slade Green

I am not in a position to travel far from Slade Green. Please explain the reason why all Slade Green lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?

As unjust as it may seem for lenders to limit who can represent them, from the public’s or lawyer’s standpoint, the flip side is that lenders are increasingly anxious and regard it essential to defend themselves from mortgage fraud. As a result of this concern lenders have reduced their conveyancing panel to a manageable size.

I have an AIP. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel solicitor as I would much rather use a high street conveyancing solicitor in Slade Green?

Do check but the the likelihood is that give you one of their panel conveyancers where you take up the "fee-free" offer. Call the lender and determine if they make available a monetary alternative. In the past a few mortgage companies offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Slade Green.

What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Slade Green

Two types of professional can conduct conveyancing in Slade Green namely licenced conveyancers or solicitors. The two can provide conveyancing services that you need to complete the disposal or purchase of property. They are both required to conduct Slade Green conveyancing on similar quality and guidelines so you may be sure that your conveyancing will be professionally administered and that all requisite steps should be suitably attended to.

I am due to move house in July. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Slade Green. Conveyancing lawyer was found before I stumbled across your site.

On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your property agent but this should only take place once the sellers lawyers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. You can advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can help you choose a conveyancing in Slade Green or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Slade Green.

Intending to buy a flat in Slade Green. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the TSB conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Slade Green lawyer is on the TSB conveyancing panel.

I am downsizing from our home in Slade Green and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Slade Green. Having lived in Slade Green for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)

How does conveyancing in Slade Green differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Slade Green approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Slade Green usually buy the land, 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 Slade Green or who has acted in the same development.

We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent advised that the vendor will only move forward if we use the agent's recommended lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Slade Green

It is improbable the owners are driving this. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is not the way to achieve this. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Slade Green conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothose that will give the estate agent a kickback or hit his conveyancing figures set by senior management.
