After what seems like an age a mortgage agreement from NatWest for the refinancing of my 3 bedroom garden flat is coming within the next few days. Are you able to suggest a low cost conveyancing law firm in Bakewell?
You have arrived at the wrong site to search for cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Bakewell. Our aim is to provide affordable conveyancing but our intention is not to work with the cheapest lawyers. Do not be fooled by organisations offering ninety nine pound conveyancing in Bakewell. In your best case scenario, in choosing a lawyer for cheap conveyancing, you will earn what you pay for and at worst it will result in you invoiced for extras and still not end up with the service required.
It is 10 years ago since I purchased my property in Bakewell. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I can't locate the title documents. Is this a problem?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be kept by the mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the solicitor who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in all probability the land will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Bakewell relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
Me and my brother own a terraced Edwardian house in Bakewell. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Skipton Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the matching property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Bakewell and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Bakewell ahead of retaining solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. My surveyor advised that some banks may not grant a mortgage on such a house.
It depends who your proposed lender is. Lloyds has different requirements for example to Halifax. If you contact us we can look into this further with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Bakewell. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
