Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Barrowden

What happens if my solicitor is expelled from the Yorkshire BS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Barrowden?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

I need some expedited conveyancing in Barrowden as I have pressure to exchange contracts inside 2 weeks. Fortunately I do not require a mortgage. Can I escape the need for conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

Drawing on years of experience of conveyancing in Barrowden the following are instances of issues that can show up and therefore affect future saleability: Enforcement Actions, Overdue Fees, Outstanding Grants, Railway Schemes,...

The deeds to our home are lost. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Barrowden 10 years ago are no longer around. Will I be able to sell the house?

You no longer need to hold title original deeds to evidence that you own the land or premises, as the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Barrowden is the location of the property. Can you offer any opinion?

Flying freeholds in Barrowden are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Barrowden you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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.
