Finally the sale completed on my house in Thornhill last April but my buyer keeps whats apping daily complaining that his lawyer needs to hear from mylawyer. What should have happened now that I have sold?
Post completion of your disposal your conveyancer should forward the transfer documentation and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. Where relevant, your lawyer should also evidence that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been redeemed to the buyers solicitors. There are no post completion tasks unique to conveyancing in Thornhill.
How does conveyancing in Thornhill differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Thornhill approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Thornhill typically purchase 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Thornhill or who has acted in the same development.

I previously advised by my mortgage company that their panel lawyers work on no sale no fee basis for conveyancing in Thornhill. My purchase did not proceed and now the conveyancers want search fees! They say the fees are seperate!
Thornhill conveyancing search fees are separate expenses not legal fees as these are payable to a third party.
