I selected a high street firm for our conveyancing in South Petherton yesterday. After carefully reading the official terms of business it is apparent thatI am responsible for fees even if the sale doesn't happen. Should I go with them or choose an on-line solicitor practice who offer no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in South Petherton?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will generally be uplifted to counteract the cases that fail to complete. Do bear in mind that these deals tend not to cover disbursements such as South Petherton conveyancing search expenses.
Should my conveyancer be raising enquiries about flooding during the conveyancing in South Petherton.
Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers dealing with homes in South Petherton. Some people will buy a property in South Petherton, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, satisfactory insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Conveyancers are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that may be initiated by the purchaser or by their conveyancers which should give them a better appreciation of the risks in South Petherton. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a buyer’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a usual question of the seller to determine whether the property has ever been flooded. If the property has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the owner, then a purchaser may bring a compensation claim resulting from an misleading answer. A purchaser’s solicitors will also carry out an environmental search. This will reveal if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional inquiries should be carried out.
