What is the first thing I need to know concerning purchase conveyancing in Wimborne Minster?
Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Wimborne Minster or throughout Dorset is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of opportunity for conflict between you and others involved in the transaction. For instance, the seller, property agent and even potentially a lender. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Wimborne Minster is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the transaction whose interest is to protect your best interests and to keep you safe.
There is a distinct ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone must be at fault for the process taking so long. We recommend that you must always trust your conveyancer above the other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.
The Wimborne Minster conveyancing solicitors that I recently instructed on my house acquisition in Wimborne Minster have suddenly closed. They were on acting for me because I needed a firm on the Skipton conveyancing panel and my preferred Wimborne Minster lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What do I do now?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them straight away so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Skipton conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers should be in a position to assist.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Wimborne Minster is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Wimborne Minster are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Wimborne Minster you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Wimborne Minster may ascertain 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 property.
