I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Bowes Park. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £175. Shortly after, the lawyer contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Coventry BS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
Me and my brother purchased a terraced Edwardian house in Bowes Park. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Britannia. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same address. Is it worth asking Britannia to clarify?
You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for 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 Bowes Park and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.
How does conveyancing in Bowes Park differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Bowes Park come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because new home sellers in Bowes Park tend to acquire the site, 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 Bowes Park or who has acted in the same development.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Bowes Park ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor has said that some lenders tend not give a mortgage on a flying freehold house.
