Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Wollaston

My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Wollaston. I need to find out if they are on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd conveyancing panel. Could you advise?

You should e-mail your lawyer and ask them whether they are on the lender panel. Otherwise please get in touch with Godiva Mortgages Ltd who may be able to confirm.

I need some quick conveyancing in Wollaston as I have an ultimatum to exchange contracts within 3 weeks. A mortgage is not required. Is it possible to avoid the conveyancing searches to save money and time?

If.Given you are are a mortgage free buyer you are at liberty not to do searches although no law firm would advise that you don't. With plenty of history conveyancing in Wollaston the following are instances of what can arise and adversely impact future saleability: Enforcement Actions, Overdue Charges, Outstanding Grants, Railway Schemes,...

I bought my flat on 6 November and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Wollaston advises it would be formalised inside ten days. Are titles in Wollaston particularly slow to register?

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Wollaston registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any interested persons or bodies. At present in the region of 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration is effected after the purchaser is living at the property so 'speed' is not always top priority yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Wollaston. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Wollaston

    Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Wollaston. Before I get started I would like to find out the remaining lease term.

Assuming the lease is registered - and almost all are in Wollaston - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Wollaston Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Examples of Queries before buying

    Are any of leasehold owners in arrears of their service charge liability? Who manages the building?

We are about to buying a home in Wollaston. Can our conveyancing practitioner have our purchase price confidential from the likes of Nestoria. How could this be achieved ?

HMLR by statute are bound to reveal price paid data on a register of the title for domestic properties countrywide including homes in Wollaston. The register of ownership is a public document, so HM Land Registry would be breaching their statutory obligations excluded certain properties such as your property in Wollaston.

In essence you can make a request of HMLR to withhold the price paid entry but the response will be in the negative.
