Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Beckton

My fiance and I are hoping to acquire a house in Beckton and have instructed a Beckton conveyancing practice. Within the past 48 hours our lawyer has sent a preliminary report and documents to look through with a view to exchanging next week. Leeds Building Society have this afternoon contacted us to inform me that there is now an issue as our Beckton solicitor is not on their approved list of lawyers. What do we do from here?

When purchasing a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is standard for the purchasers' solicitors to also act for the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your solicitor should contact your bank and see 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 the bank's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Beckton solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the mix.

What will a local search inform me regarding the house I am purchasing in Beckton?

Beckton conveyancing often starts with the ordering local authority searches directly from your local Authority or through a personal search company for example PSG The local search is essential in every Beckton conveyancing purchase; that is if you don’t want any unpleasant surprises after you move into your new home. The search will supply information on, amongst other things, details on planning applications relevant to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of 13 subject areas.

I moved into my house on 14 June and my personal details is yet to be registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Beckton said it will be dealt with in less than a month. Are titles in Beckton uniquely lengthy to register?

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Beckton registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the buyer is living at the property therefore 'speed' is not typically top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
