Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Tintagel

Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Tintagel. Is there a reason why all Tintagel conveyancers are not on all lender panels?

Before the recession most mortgage companies demonstrated an attitude to risk which is different than today. The financial regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into mortgage fraud which concluded: know the conveyancers on your panel. Accordingly, banks have subsequently requiredmore information from law firms concerning their processes and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Many firms have been excluded from lender panels even though they had an exemplary disciplinary record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Such firms were never going to meet the criteria of amount of transactions the lenders insisted on.

As someone unfamiliar with the Tintagel conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can impart concerning the ownership transfer in Tintagel

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Tintagel and elsewhere in Cornwall is an adversarial experience. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of opportunity for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the ownership transfer. For example, the seller, selling agent and even potentially a mortgage company. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Tintagel is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the process whose responsibility is to look after your legal interests and to keep you safe.

Sometimes a potential adversary will attempt to convince you that you should follow their advice. For example, the estate agent may claim to be assisting by claiming that your solicitor is dragging his heels. Or your mortgage broker may tell you to do take action that is contrary to your solicitors recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

How does conveyancing in Tintagel differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Tintagel contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because builders in Tintagel usually purchase 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 conveyancers 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 Tintagel or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Tintagel ahead of retaining conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. The surveyor has said that some lenders will not give a mortgage on this type of house.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions from Birmingham Midshires. If you e-mail us we can check via the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Tintagel. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Tintagel to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.
