We were just about to sign contracts for a semi detached house in Aldeburgh. We encountered a problem. The loan offer with Bank of Ireland expires on 13/7/2026 but the owners are suggesting a completion date of 15/7/2026. Can one extend the loan expiry date?
The best person to address this concern is your solicitors who will assess if he or she is corresponding with the bank, vendor’s solicitors, selling agents or indeed all parties taking into account the circumstances your conveyancing to date.
we are a couple who wish to acquire a newly converted apartment in Aldeburgh with a mortgage from Alliance & Leicester .We have a Aldeburgh conveyancing solicitor but Alliance & Leicester says he's not listed on their approved list of member firms. It seems we are left with no choice but to instruct a Alliance & Leicester panel lawyer or keep our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that lawyers needs to be on the Alliance & Leicester approved list. in the past, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Alliance & Leicester
How does conveyancing in Aldeburgh differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Aldeburgh come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because builders in Aldeburgh typically acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Aldeburgh or who has acted in the same development.
I was advised by a few property agents in Aldeburgh to choose a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your site rather than another?
We refuse to give any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
