Having legally bound yourself to purchase you will need to hire the services of a conveyancing solicitor quickly as you are facing a tight a fixed date to complete the conveyancing. An auction property will have a corresponding legal set of papers. This will include evidence of title and search results. In the case of leasehold premises the conveyancing papers may include a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork relating to leasehold premises. You need to hand this to the conveyancer instructed by you as soon as possible. Do make sure that you have funds in order to complete the transaction on the set completion date.

I currently have a mortgage with Yorkshire BS for my property in Banbury. Conveyancing has been completed some time ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Yorkshire BS?
Your original mortgage agreement with Yorkshire BS will provide that you need their approval in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Yorkshire BS’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Yorkshire BS directly. You need not do this via a Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel solicitor.
How does conveyancing in Banbury differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Banbury come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because builders in Banbury 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 conveyancers 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 Banbury or who has acted in the same development.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Banbury. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the remaining lease term.
If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Banbury - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
