Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Aughton

My IFA requires my Aughton law firm’s panel member for the HSBC conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I find this out. I have tried my local Aughton branch but they cant find it on their system.

Have you tried calling your Aughton lawyer about this?. Most Aughton conveyancing firms will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.

My wife and I are nearing an exchange on a property in Aughton and my parents have sent the exchange deposit to my property lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. I am advised that, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the lender concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?

The solicitor is duty bound to check with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only reveal this to your bank if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

I have todayfound out that Stirling Law have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Aughton for a purchase of a leasehold flat 18 months ago. How can I establish that the property is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?

The easiest way to see if the premises is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Aughton conveyancing specialists.

How does conveyancing in Aughton differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Aughton contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Aughton tend to 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Aughton or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Aughton is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Aughton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Aughton you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Aughton may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
