Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Barnet

Is the fact that my conveyancer in Barnet is not identified on my bank's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s conveyancing?

That would more than likely be a wrong assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should contact the Barnet conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

I am purchasing a property without a mortgage in Barnet. I have been residing for the previous dozen years in Barnet. Conveyancing searches are expensive. Given that I have knowledge of the road and vicinity very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

In the absence of a mortgage, then all but one or two of the Barnet conveyancing searches are optional. Your solicitor will ’encourage you, perhaps strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but he has a professional duty to take that path of guidance. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it may be of interest to your future purchaser what the searches determine. Sometimes properties with functional issues can still show up unpredicted search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Barnet will provide you some practical guidance in this regard.

I need some fast conveyancing in Barnet as I have a deadline to exchange contracts in less than 3 weeks. A home loan is not required. Can I decline from having conveyancing searches to save money and time?

As you are not getting a mortgage you have the choice not to have searches carried out although no solicitor would recommend that you don't. Drawing on our experience of conveyancing in Barnet the following are examples of what can appear and adversely impact future mortgageability: Refused Planning Applications, Outstanding Fees, Outstanding Grants, Road Schemes,...

How does conveyancing in Barnet differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Barnet approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because builders in Barnet tend to acquire the land, 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 Barnet or who has acted in the same development.

My cousin has recommend that I instruct his lawyers for conveyancing in Barnet. Do I take his recommendation?

No doubt the ideal way to choose a conveyancing practitioner is to have feedback from friends or family who have previously instructed the firm that you are considering.

What is the best way of identifying a auction conveyancing in Barnet?

First ask your friends and family who they would recommend. Option 2 is to use a search tool on the internet for conveyancing in Barnet.
