It would be unwise to be seduced by the cheapest Stapleton conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

My husband and I have organised a further advance on our mortgage from RBS as we intend to carry out renovations to our property in Stapleton. Are we obliged to choose a nearby Stapleton solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

RBS would not normally appoint a member of their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the RBS conveyancing panel.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with HSBC. I assume I don't need a Stapleton solicitor on the HSBC panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your HSBC mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the HSBC mortgage from the register. HSBC, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where HSBC has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. HSBC has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your HSBC mortgage has been paid off.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our home can not be found. The solicitors who handled the conveyancing in Stapleton 4 years ago no longer exist. What are my next steps?

You no longer need to have the physical original deeds to evidence that you own the land or premises, given that the Land Registry have everything they need in a digital format.

How does conveyancing in Stapleton differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Stapleton contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because developers in Stapleton usually buy 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 Stapleton or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Stapleton I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Stapleton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage that many years will be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
