I have given 8 weeks notice to my existing landlord and must leave my let out flat in Yeading by 25/11/2024. Conveyancing for my house purchase has just started. Is it possible to complete in a couple of weeks as I wish to avoid having to find short term accommodation?
The normal practice is not to provide notice on a rental unless your lawyer suggests that you should. Assuming that you have not previously done so, contact to your conveyancer and urge them to they apply pressure on the sellers side, try to get a realistic time scale from them that all parties will work to achieve
Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Yeading is more expensive?
In short, leasehold conveyancing in Yeading and elsewhere usually warrants additional hours of investigation compared to freehold transactions. This includes lease investigation, liaising with the landlord concerning the service of applicable notices, securing current service charge and management information, securing the landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – regardless of the fact the lease has passed through many different property solicitors hands since it was first entered into.
I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel solicitor as I would prefer to use a high street conveyancing solicitor in Yeading?
Do check but the the probability is that appoint one of their panel conveyancers where you accept the "fee-free" deal. Call the lender and ask if they allow a monetary alternative. Some mortgage companies have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Yeading.
We previously instructed conveyancers based in Yeading on the Coventry BS solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate fee for dealing with the Coventry BS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Coventry BS?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your lawyer may charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Coventry BS but by your Yeading property lawyer. Numerous firms on the Coventry BS panel will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
My husband and I are at the point of viewing houses in Yeading and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it sensible to have a solicitor on ‘stand by’? I intend to finance via a home loan with Yorkshire BS.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the selling agent. Given that you are seeking a mortgage with Yorkshire BS, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Co-operative are being problematic. The Yeading solicitor who is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Co-operative are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Co-operative have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Co-operative have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Co-operative may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
I'm purchasing my first flat in Yeading with a loan from Britannia. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The estate agent told me not disclose to my solicitor about the deal as it could jeopardize my mortgage with Britannia. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
