Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Beddington

I am purchasing a ground floor flat in Beddington. My Solicitor is not listed on the mortgage company conveyancing list. Am I still permitted to retain my Beddington conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the lender panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?

You will need to appoint a solicitor to deal with the formalities when you require a loan to purchase your property. They will carry out all the necessary legal checks on the property, ensuring that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is in place. One could select a Beddington conveyancer of your choosing. Nevertheless, if the conveyancing practitioner selected is not on the lender solicitor panel further costs will be incurred as separate legal representation will be need by the lender. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so provided your solicitor has not previously sought membership they should take the chance to apply.

We're in Beddington, FTBs buying with a mortgage (lender is Nationwide , and our solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?

The fact that your lawyer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no lawyer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

I completed on my house on 5 November and my personal details is yet to be on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Beddington said it would be concluded in less than a month. Are titles in Beddington uniquely lengthy to register?

As far as conveyancing in Beddington registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any other parties. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to longer delays. Historically registration occurs once the new owner is living at the premises thus post completion formalities is not typically an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

How does conveyancing in Beddington differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Beddington contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because house builders in Beddington usually buy the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Beddington or who has acted in the same development.

Should I be concerned about 3rd parties that I am dealing with are recommending a national conveyancing firm rather than a local Beddington conveyancing firm?

As is the case with many service providers, often input from relatives can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are lots of parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders may put forward solicitors to retain. Sometimes these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there behind the scenes commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You have the discretion to choose your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that many mortgage providers operate an approved list of solicitors you must use for the lender related work in your transaction.

A small minority of properties in Beddington do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without getting anywhere. Can a leaseholder make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Beddington conveyancing firm to assist?
