Conveyancing in Wargrave : Keep it Local

Reasons to use our Wargrave conveyancing solicitors

  • 1 Wargrave lawyers have a crucial edge when it comes to Wargrave conveyancing as they have valuable local knowledge of local authority requirements, planning policies and other matters that will affect your home move
  • 2 There is a better than average chance that the other side’s conveyancers are located in Wargrave - if so both parties are likely to have worked on conveyancing matters in the past
  • 3 Excellent communication together with a wealth of local knowledge are key benefits that you should seek when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Wargrave conveyancing can become significantly more complicated as a result of poor communication between all the parties. The lawyers listed endeavour to make sure that the lines of communication are open and act on arising issues and developments quickly.
  • 4 Low cost packages from online conveyancers might be tempting. However, these companies are often located hundreds of miles away with little understanding of the factors that impact property transactions in Wargrave
  • 5 The hallmark of our conveyancing solicitors in Wargrave is quality not quantity. The level of service offered by conveyancing "factories" (sometimes 'recommended' by large estate agency chains) often falls short of the high standards of professionalism you will expect.

Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Wargrave

Is the fact that my solicitor in Wargrave is not listed on my bank's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s work?

It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Wargrave conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

Our grandson is buying a house that has just been built in Wargrave with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?

The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Wargrave?

This will be the total of the cost of the Local Authority Search. If any deposit is as part of the total price then this will be needed immediately prior to contracts are exchanged.
