Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Nationwide. Borough Green conveyancing lawyers are instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Nationwide?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Nationwide conducted the survey? Have you advised Nationwide as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

I'm spending time viewing houses in Borough Green and I am about to put in an offer. Is it best to have my property lawyer on ‘stand by’? I will be getting a mortgage with Co-operative.

It would be sensible to start your search sooner rather than later. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the estate agent. Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Co-operative, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel.

About to purchase house in Borough Green. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Borough Green property lawyer is on the RBS conveyancing panel.

We are selling our property in Borough Green and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Borough Green conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used an internet conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Borough Green. Having lived in Borough Green for many years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

4 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Borough Green took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 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 residence 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.

I am using a search engine for the words on line conveyancing in Borough Green it reveals many property lawyersin the vicinity. How do I determine which is the suitable conveyancer for purchase transaction?

The preferential way of finding a suitable conveyancer is through a trusted recommendation, so seek the guidance of friends and family who have acquired a property in Borough Green or a local estate agent or mortgage broker. Fees for conveyancing in Borough Green vary, so it's sensible to secure a minimum of four fee estimates from different companies. Dont forget to clarify that the fees are fixed.

I have just started marketing my ground floor apartment in Borough Green. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently had a half-yearly service charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?

It best that you clear the service charge as usual as all rents and service invoices will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
