Having sold my house in Barkingside last November yet the purchaser is whats apping daily to say their solicitor needs to hear from mine. What should have happened now that I have sold?
Following your house sale your solicitor should send the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. If applicable, your conveyancer must also confirm that the home loan has been redeemed to the purchasers solicitors. There are no post completion tasks specific conveyancing in Barkingside.
I have been recommended a conveyancing solicitor in Barkingside. I I am struggling to find out whether they are accepted on the Coventry Building Society approved list of lawyers. Could you help?
The first thing to do is phone the solicitor and enquire whether they can act for the bank. Alternatively you can get in touch with Coventry Building Society who may be able to assist.
We are selling our home in Barkingside and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Barkingside conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed an online conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Barkingside. Having lived in Barkingside for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

I am a fortnight into a residential purchase having been recommend to a firm by the selling agent to perform conveyancing in Barkingside. I am am very dissatisfied with the level of service. Can you you assist me in finding new lawyers?
They would need to be very bad to suggest replacing them. Has the mortgage offer been generated? If so you need to inform them of the replacement conveyancer and ensure the offer are re-sent. Your new solicitor ideally needs to be on the mortgage company panel to avoid added charges and complications. That should be your starting point.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Barkingside. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the remaining lease term.
If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Barkingside - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details 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.
I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord for a lease extension without getting anywhere. Can one make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Barkingside conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?
You certainly can. We can put you in touch with a Barkingside conveyancing firm who can help.
