Me and my partner are purchasing property in Brent Park. My Solicitor has never been on on the bank conveyancing list. Am I still permitted to continue with my Brent Park conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the lender list of approved lawyers?
Various options include
- Proceed with your existing Brent Park property lawyer but your lender will no doubt use a lawyer on their approved panel. This will result in additional cost and likely frustration.
- Appoint a fresh property lawyer to act in the purchase, obviously checking they are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel.
- Appeal to your solicitor to attempt to join the mortgage company panel
My wife and I are downsizing from our property in Brent Park and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Brent Park lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Brent Park. Having lived in Brent Park for three years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You must check with 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 ailment)
How does conveyancing in Brent Park differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Brent Park contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because developers in Brent Park tend to purchase the real estate, 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Brent Park or who has acted in the same development.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Brent Park. Before diving in I would like to find out the remaining lease term.
If the lease is registered - and almost all are in Brent Park - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
