Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Alrewas

Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Alrewas. Is there a reason why all Alrewas conveyancers are not on all mortgage company panels?

A decade ago most mortgage companies displayed an attitude to risk which is different from today. The financial regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into mortgage fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the conveyancers on your panel. Accordingly, lenders have subsequently soughtmore information from law firms about their processes and the individuals employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Hundreds of firms have found themselves removed from lender panels even though they had an exemplary track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to meet the criteria of volume of transactions the mortgage companies required.

Can you help? My Alrewas solicitor is advising me that he is legally obliged toapply for Alrewas conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the Nat Westsolicitor panel. Is my solicitor right?

You have limited options available to you. As you are taking a home loan with a lender your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook provisions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Alrewas conveyancing searches.

Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that may impact a commercial estate in Alrewas?

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Alrewas will execute a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers invest in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Alrewas. The search result sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Alrewas.

For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Alrewas it is crucial to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been addressed adequately can result in delays to Alrewas commercial conveyancing deals as well as pose a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not ordered for domestic conveyancing in Alrewas.

The deeds to my house can not be found. The conveyancers who handled the conveyancing in Alrewas 4 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?

These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your conveyancer should be aware exactly where to find all the relevant paperwork so you may purchase or dispose of your house without any difficulty. If duplicates are not available, your conveyancer can put in place insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on your property.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Alrewas prior to instructing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. My surveyor advised that some lenders may not give a loan on such a house.

It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different instructions for example to Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check with the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Alrewas. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

Is it best to instruct a Alrewas conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am hoping to buy? I have an old university friend who can handle the conveyancing but they are based approximately 350kilometers drive away.

The primary upside of using a high street Alrewas conveyancing practice is that you can pop in to execute paperwork, hand in your ID and pester them where appropriate. Having local Alrewas know how is a plus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and in the main were content that should trump using an unknown Alrewas conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being Alrewas based.
