I am planning to move home in January. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Bedlington. Conveyancing firm was found prior to coming across this website.

On the afternoon of completion you can collect the house keys from your property agent but this should only be done when the previous owners solicitors confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be passed over.

As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal organisation but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Bedlington or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Bedlington.

I've read lots of house buying guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Bedlington solicitor - who is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?

Lloyds will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Lloyds will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Bedlington surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

I have been told that property searches are a common reason for delay in Bedlington house deals. Is this right?

It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Bedlington took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Bedlington ahead of instructing solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor has said that some banks tend refuse to give a loan on a flying freehold home.

It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different instructions from Nationwide. Should you wish to call us we can check with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Bedlington. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

My husband and I are new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent advised that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint the agent's recommended lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a family conveyancer used to conveyancing in Bedlington

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this requirement. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to use your own,trusted Bedlington conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will give their negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.
