Am I right to be concerned about brokers that I am dealing with are recommending an online conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Wootton Bridge conveyancing practice?
As with many professional services, often input from family and friends can be very helpful. Yet there are many parties with a vested interest in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders may recommend conveyancers to select. Sometimes these lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there is an underlying commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to select your preferred lawyer. Don't forget that the majority of mortgage providers specify a panel list of conveyancers you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your conveyancing.
I've recently bought a leasehold house in Wootton Bridge. Am I liable to pay service charges for periods before completion of my purchase?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
