Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bestwood

My best friend’s dad is a conveyancing practitioner. I expect that I will receive mate’s pricing for conveyancing, but if not, what kind of fees should I be paying for conveyancing in Bestwood?

Do contrast pricing. Do use our search tool on this site. The estimates seem to be different but service levels do differ between conveyancers as is true with most professions.

I am due to exchange on the purchase of a house in Bestwood but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree compensation from the current proprietors in the sum of £3k taking the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of amending the contract but Lloyds will not permit this. Should they have been informed?

Your conveyancing practitioner that is on the Lloyds approved list is required to disclose to Lloyds of any variations to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to notify the price change to Lloyds then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Lloyds and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Bestwood.

2 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Bestwood took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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 premises 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.

How does conveyancing in Bestwood differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Bestwood come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because builders in Bestwood typically buy the land, 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 property lawyers 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 Bestwood or who has acted in the same development.

I opted to have a survey done on a property in Bestwood prior to instructing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may refuse to issue a mortgage on a flying freehold house.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Bank of Scotland has different requirements for example to Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Bestwood. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

I am looking into buying my first house which is in Bestwood and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Bestwood. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Bestwood area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?

Rather than looking online forget looking online you should go and have a look at Bestwood. In the meantime here are some basic statistics that we found
