Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Flamborough

I sincerely hope you can help me. My Flamborough lawyer is advising me that he has toapply for Flamborough conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Virgin Moneyapproved lawyer panel. These Flamborough searches cost a lot of money can this be avoided?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a home loan with a lender your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Flamborough conveyancing searches.

We're in Flamborough, First time buyers purchasing with a mortgage (lender is Coventry BS , and our solicitor is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?

The fact that your lawyer is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

My partner and I have arranged the release of further funds on our mortgage from Principality as we wish to carry out improvements to our property in Flamborough. Are we obliged to select a local Flamborough solicitor on the Principality conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

Principality would not normally instruct a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Principality panel.

I've digested plenty of house buying guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Flamborough solicitor - who is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. Is that normal?

Nationwide will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Nationwide will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Flamborough postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Nationwide, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Flamborough.

My offer on a semi in Flamborough has been accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have placed an offer on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Flamborough. What should be my next step? At what point do I apply for the mortgage with RBS?

It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Flamborough conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your lawyer is on the RBS approved list. Concerning the next steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market the majority of purchasers will apply for the mortgage with RBS and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to proceed with the conveyancing in Flamborough.

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Flamborough prior to instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies tend not issue a mortgage on this type of home.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Flamborough.

I'm remortgaging my existing property to a BTL mortgage with Nottingham Building Society and intend to use the remaining equity as a deposit on further house. The neighborhood we are looking at is Flamborough. Will your lawyers be able to act for both sets of lenders and tie in the transactions?

Do use our search tool on this page to check that the conveyancers are approved by both lenders. On the basis that they are your lawyer will be able to connect the two deals but you should have a chat with you solicitor and specify your desired outcome and needs.

I am an executor of my recently deceased aunt’s Will, with a property in Flamborough which is to be sold. The bungalow is unregistered at HMLR and I'm told that many estate agents will insist that it is done before they'll move forward. What's the mechanism for this?

In the situation you refer to it seems advisable to seek to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. HMLR’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
