Having sold my house in Trelogan last November but the buyer keeps SMS messaging daily to say their solicitor is waiting to hear from mysolicitor. What should my lawyer have done following completion?
Following your house sale your solicitor is committed to send the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. If applicable, your solicitor must also send confirmation that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the buyers lawyers. There is unlikely to be post completion procedures peculiar conveyancing in Trelogan.
I am purchasing a property in Trelogan. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Skipton be concerned?
Given that your lender is Skipton your lawyer must check the conveyancing requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Skipton. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Skipton where a lease fails to meet these requirements. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Trelogan.
I'm spending time looking at flats in Trelogan and I am about to put in an offer. Should I already have a conveyancing practitioner in place at this point? I will be getting a mortgage with TSB.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their details on to the selling agent. Given that you are taking out a mortgage with TSB, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the TSB conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, UBS are being pedantic. The Trelogan solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but UBS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Have purchased a a detached house in Trelogan , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Trelogan conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check that my name is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Trelogan is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any other persons or bodies. Currently in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive delays. Historically registration takes place after the new owner has moved in to the property so 'speed' is not usually an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Trelogan is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Trelogan are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Trelogan you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Trelogan may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
