Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Amersham

My friend's uncle is a property lawyer. I expect that I'll be able to get mate’s pricing for conveyancing, but if not, what level of figure would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Amersham?

You should compare pricing. Do use our comparison tool on this page. Whilst charges will vary but the service one can expect differ between property lawyers as is true with most professions.

It is 10 years ago since I acquired my property in Amersham. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I can't locate my title deeds. Is this a major issue?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with the mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who handled your purchase. Secondly in most cases the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring current official copies of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Amersham involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

We just had an offer accepted to purchase with Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. I called into 3 or 4 high street firms but am unable to find a Amersham conveyancing firm on the Norwich and Peterborough Building Society panel. Can you help?

Please do make the most of the search tool on this page. Please choose the lender and type Amersham or your preferred area and you will be presented with a number of lawyer offices in Amersham or near you.

We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Amersham and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Amersham conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used an online conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Amersham. Having lived in Amersham for three years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Amersham I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Amersham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

Am I better off to appoint a Amersham conveyancing lawyer based in the location that I am purchasing? An old friend can deal with the conveyancing but they are based 300kilometers away.

The benefit of a local Amersham conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to sign documents, deliver your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. Having local Amersham know how is a plus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If if people you trust instructed your friend and the majority were impressed that should outweigh using an unfamiliar Amersham conveyancing lawyer just because they are local.
