Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bayswater

Me and my partner are buying a property in Bayswater. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a solicitor? On the day of competition we will need to put funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

This question may be naive but I am new to the process as a 1st time purchaser of a two bedroom flat in Bayswater. Do I collect the keys to the premises on the completion date from my conveyancer? If this is the case, I will find a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Bayswater?

On the day of completion you will not be required to attend the conveyancers office in Bayswater. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner’s conveyancers, and once they have received this, you should be called to pick up the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs early afternoon.

We had selected conveyancers located in Bayswater on the Lloyds solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further fee for dealing with the Lloyds mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Lloyds?

Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner may charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by Lloyds but by your Bayswater property lawyer. Numerous firms on the Lloyds panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many practices include it on their overall fee.

We are purchasing a house and the solicitor has mentioned Chancel Repair to which the house could be obligated to pay because it falls into the area of such a church. She has suggested insurance. Is this strictly appropriate for conveyancing in Bayswater

Absolutely. We can put you in touch with a Bayswater conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Bayswater premises is 93 Oakwood Court in June 2010. the LVT determined that the premium to be paid for the new lease was £492,083, This case was in relation to 1 flat. The number of years remaining on the existing lease(s) was 37.79 years.

What are the common deficiencies that you encounter in leases for Bayswater properties?

There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Bayswater. All leases are unique and legal mistakes in the legal wording can sometimes mean that certain sections are not included. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:

    A provision to repair to or maintain parts of the premises

You will encounter difficulties when selling your property if you have a defective lease as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Lloyds TSB Bank, Bank of Scotland, and Britannia all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease does not cover certain provisions they may refuse to provide security, forcing the buyer to pull out.

My wife and I are purchasing a 2 bedroom flat in Bayswater. At the point of instructing our property lawyer, they told us that they were on all major UK mortgage company panels. The financial adviser emailed just now to advise that they don't appear to be on the TSB approved list. Should that be true, what should we do? Should we simply find a different conveyancer that is on their panel or should we pay for dual representation, with TSB selecting their own preferred lawyer.

Where you are buying a property needing a mortgage it is normal for the buyer’s solicitors to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancer has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the lawyer has to satisfy. Some building societies now require their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your solicitor should call TSB to find out if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You don't have to instruct a firm on TSB's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Bayswater lawyers, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another conveyancer into the equation.
