Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch

Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Aldborough Hatch is not listed on my mortgage company's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s work?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Aldborough Hatch conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

I am buying a property mortgage free in Aldborough Hatch. I have lived for the last dozen years in Aldborough Hatch. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I know the area and road very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?

Provided that you do not need a home loan, then the vast majority of the Aldborough Hatch conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your solicitor will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but she is duty bound to take that path of guidance. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to dispose of the house in the future, it could be of interest to your prospective buyer what the searches contain. Sometimes properties with day to day issues can still show up unpredicted search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Aldborough Hatch will be able to give you some helpful guidance concerning this.

Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to sign the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch so that I can attend their offices if necessary.

As opposed to twenty years ago, most mortgage companies no longer oblige their conveyancing panel lawyer to witness the borrowers signature. It will still be necessary for you to supply identification documents and there are still manifest benefits to choosing a locally based ayer, in your situation a conveyancing solicitor in Aldborough Hatch.

My wife and I buying a detached bungalow in Aldborough Hatch. The intention is to carry out a loft conversion at the property.Will legal due diligence on the property involve checks to ascertain if these alterations are permitted?

Your solicitor should review the registered title as conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch can occasionally reveal restrictions in the title deeds which restrict certain alterations or necessitated the consent of a 3rd party. Some additions require local authority planning permissions and approval in accordance building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. It would be prudent to check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.

We had appointed conveyancers locally in Aldborough Hatch on the Clydesdale solicitor panel. They have just invoiced me an additional charge for handling the Clydesdale mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Clydesdale?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your lawyer is entitled to levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Clydesdale but by your Aldborough Hatch conveyancer. Plenty of firms on the Clydesdale panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Aldborough Hatch. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Aldborough Hatch solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.

Just bought a terraced house in Aldborough Hatch , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My Aldborough Hatch conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the registration formalities are addressed.

As far as conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any interested persons or bodies. Currently roughly 80% of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration is effected once the buyer has moved in to the property thus registration formalities is not always an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

My partner and I are acquiring a 2 bedroom flat in Aldborough Hatch. At the point of instructing our conveyancing practitioner, we were told they were on all major UK bank panels. The mortgage broker called yesterday to advise that they don't appear to be on the UBS approved list. Should that be true, what should we do? Do we simply pick a different property lawyer that is on their panel or do we pay for separate representation, with UBS appointing their own preferred property lawyer.

Where you are buying a property needing a mortgage it is usual for the buyer’s solicitors to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancing practitioner has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the lawyer has to satisfy. Some lenders now insist their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your conveyancing practitioner should contact UBS to find out if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You don't have to instruct a firm on UBS's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Aldborough Hatch lawyers, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the mix.
