My wife and I buying a 3 bedroom semi in Avery Hill. The intention is to convert the garage to a playroom at the house.Will the conveyancing process include investigations to see if these works are allowed?
Your solicitor should review the registered title as conveyancing in Avery Hill can on occasion identify restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit categories of works or necessitated the consent of another owner. Certain additions require local authority planning consent and approval in accordance building regulations. Many areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. You should check these things with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.

Our offer on a semi in Avery Hill has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Avery Hill. What do I do now? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with Nationwide?
It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then valuation, Avery Hill conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your property lawyer is on the Nationwide approved list. Regarding the next stages this very much depends on the circumstances of your case, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market some purchasers will apply for a home loan with Nationwide and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancer to move forward with the conveyancing in Avery Hill.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Avery Hill is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Avery Hill are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Avery Hill you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Avery Hill may decide 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 property.

I am Googling for Avery Hill competitive conveyancing fees. Can I be assured that all the Avery Hill firms that are identified on your website are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel?
The solicitor and licensed conveyancing practices on our directory have assured us via an online form that they are on the mortgage company panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the mortgage company panel. To date we have not been informed by either a mortgage company or a member of the public that the data about a specific Avery Hill firm being on the lender conveyancing panel is incorrect.
