Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Trowbridge

Can conveyancing in Trowbridge to be finalised within 10 days?

In the event that you are under pressure for your conveyancing we would recommend that your lawyer is familiar with the location as they will make use of local contacts and know-how. It is possible that they may have conducted previoushouses in the same neighbourhood. You would be best advised to use a Trowbridge conveyancing solicitor. Second, check that the lawyer is on the lender panel. It is believed that just under twenty per cent of Trowbridge conveyancing transactions are suspended or derailed after discovering a buyer’s solicitor was not on their mortgage lender’s member panel. This can often result in the transaction being held up by as much as three weeks. It is estimated that this issue impacts in the region of one hundred thousand home sales every year. Many Trowbridge conveyancing firms can not represent certain mortgage companies so do check as early as possible.

Can I use your services to recommend a Conveyancing solicitor in Trowbridge even if I’m not buying or disposing of a house, for instance if I want to acquire an office in Trowbridge with a loan from Virgin Money?

The service is primarily utilised to select residential conveyancing solicitors in Trowbridge but we have recorded at the end of this page a few Trowbridge commercial conveyancing firms. You should speak with the firm directly to see if they are also authorised to represent Virgin Money

Do I have to visit the offices of the solicitor to sign the mortgage deed? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Trowbridge so that I can attend their offices when needed.

As opposed to 12 years ago, the vast majority mortgage companies no longer need their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the mortgagors signature. You will still be obliged to supply identification documents and there are still distinct advantages to choosing a local ayer, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Trowbridge.

Can you point me to a directory of Barclays panel solicitors in Trowbridge on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

No. There is no such directory service on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lending institutions make their panel listings visible on the web. Where you are looking for a Trowbridge conveyancer on the Barclays please use our facility.

Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Trowbridge. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I would like to complain about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?

All lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Team at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service who will take matters further.

I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Clydesdale are being difficult. The Trowbridge solicitor who is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Clydesdale are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Clydesdale have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Clydesdale have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Clydesdale 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.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one near me in Trowbridge I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Trowbridge suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

I see that you have a search directory identifying firms on the lender conveyancing panel. Do Trowbridge conveyancing firms pay you a referral fee if I instruct them for my conveyancing?

We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the lender conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to the any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in Trowbridge.
