I have just started taking steps with a view to changing my current residential mortgage to a BTL Nationwide Building Society mortgage. The bank has said that I need a conveyancer as part of the process. I got in contact with my past Weldon conveyancing firm who acted on my behalf when I first acquired the premises. The quote provided of £500 has taken me by surprise as its a refinance than a sale or purchase.
The quote is slightly on the high side. If you you were to look around you could get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by perhaps £100 plus VAT. That being said, providing that you were satisfied with the assistance the firm gave you maylive to regret choosing an a cheaper solicitor. Remember to enquire the firm can also act for Nationwide Building Society. Do use our search tool to choose a Weldon conveyancing firm on the Nationwide Building Society member panel, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Weldon.
Please help. My Weldon lawyer is informing me me that she is duty bound toapply for Weldon conveyancing searches due to the fact thatthe firm are on the Nat Westconveyancing panel. Is this really necessary?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a mortgage company your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Weldon conveyancing searches.

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?
I am looking for a flat up to £305k and identified one near me in Weldon I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Weldon suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
Hoping to buy a property located in Weldon and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Weldon. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Weldon area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?
Rather than looking online forget looking online you should go and have a look at Weldon. In the meantime here are some basic statistics that we found
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the agent has warned us that the owners will only issue a contract if we appoint their chosen lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Weldon
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this ultimatum. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Contact the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you will continue to use your own,trusted Weldon conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds set by head office.
