I plan on buying an apartment in Bingham. My Conveyancer is not listed on the mortgage company conveyancing list. Is it possible for me to appoint my Bingham conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the lender panel?
You will need to instruct a conveyancer to complete the formalities when you require a loan to purchase your property. The conveyancer will carry out all the essential legal checks on the property, ensuring that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the necessary mortgage paperwork is dealt with. One can appoint a Bingham conveyancer of your choice. However, if the property lawyer appointed is not a member of the mortgage company approved list supplemental costs will be levied as separate legal representation will be need by the lender. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so provided your solicitor has not previously applied for membership they should do so.

I am aiming to move house in December. Will my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Bingham. Conveyancing lawyer was found before I stumbled across this site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from the estate agent however this should only occur once the previous owners solicitors confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be handed over. After that you will need to tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Bingham or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Bingham.
We are purchasing a end of terrace house in Bingham. The intention is to carry out an extension to the side at the house.Will the conveyancing process include enquiries to determine if these alterations are prohibited?
Your conveyancer will check the registered title as conveyancing in Bingham can sometimes reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prevent categories of works or require the permission of a 3rd party. Certain extensions need local authority planning permissions and approval in compliance with building regulations. Certain locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor prior to committing yourself to a purchase.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Bank of Ireland, do Bingham conveyancers have to pay a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are not aware of any lender fees to be on their panel, although some do charge an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.
How does conveyancing in Bingham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Bingham come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Bingham tend to 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bingham or who has acted in the same development.
