Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Anerley

I am purchasing a house mortgage free in Anerley. I have lived for the previous dozen years in Anerley. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I know the road and vicinity intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?

In the absence of a home loan, then almost all of the Anerley conveyancing searches are optional. Your solicitor will try and steer you, perhaps strongly, that you should have searches completed, but she has a professional duty to take that path of guidance. One thing to take into account; if you are going to sell the house in the future, it will likely be be of importance to your future buyer what the searches contain. On occasion houses with day to day issues can still throw up unfavourable search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Anerley should provide you some practical advice in this regard.

I am considering refinancing my apartment in Anerley, does my lawyer need to be on the Nottingham Solicitor panel?

In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel, but Nottingham would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.

I am helping my niece sell her house in Anerley. Does the conveyancing solicitor arrange the EPC or should I organise this?

After the abolition of Home Packs, EPC’s was maintained a mandatory component of selling a property. An EPC needs to be to hand prior to the property being marketed. This is not as aspect of the sale process that solicitors ordinarily organise. If you are instructing a Anerley conveyancing practitioner they may help arrange EPC’s given their relationships with reputable Anerley accredited person

I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Anerley. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their solicitor. I paid an advanced payment of £175. Shortly after, the conveyancing practitioner called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Aldermore panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in January 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Clydesdale are being problematic. The Anerley solicitor who is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Clydesdale are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Clydesdale have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Clydesdale have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Clydesdale may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

How does conveyancing in Anerley differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Anerley come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Anerley usually buy 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 used to new build conveyancing in Anerley or who has acted in the same development.
