Completed the sale of my flat in Booker last March yet the purchaser is e-mailing me complaining that her solicitor is waiting to hear from mine. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?
After completion of your house sale your conveyancer should send the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the purchaser's conveyancer. If applicable, your lawyer must also confirm that the home loan has been discharged to the purchasers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion tasks just for conveyancing in Booker.
Do I need to pop into the offices of the solicitor to sign the legal charge? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Booker so that I can attend their offices if required.
Nowadays approved lawyers for mortgage companies carry out their work through Royal Mail, internet or over the phone. This means that they can undertake the conveyancing transaction no matter where you live in England or Wales.

Me and my brother have a terraced Georgian house in Booker. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and The Royal Bank of Scotland. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the matching address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Booker and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the work.
How does conveyancing in Booker differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Booker contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because new home sellers in Booker usually acquire 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 conveyancers 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 Booker or who has acted in the same development.
My brother has urged me to use his conveyancing solicitors in Booker. Should I find my own conveyancer?
Much as we are happy to recommend a Booker conveyancing lawyer the ideal way to find a conveyancing practitioner is to seek referrals from friends or relatives who have experience in using the conveyancer that you are are thinking of instructing.
