After what seems like an age a loan agreement from Santander for the remortgage of my 3 room flat is expected by the end of next week. Are you able to propose a low cost conveyancing practitioner in Brighton?
You are on the wrong site if you are in need of cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Brighton. Our intention is to offer excellent value conveyancing but we do not aim to work with the cheapest lawyers. Avoid the trap of appointing organisations offering ninety nine pound conveyancing in Brighton. The optimum result, in deciding on cheap conveyancing, you will earn what you pay for and at worst it will result in you with a surprising uplift in extras and still not receive the service expected.
My wife and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a property in Brighton and my mum and dad have transferred the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my solicitor needs to make a notification to my bank. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the lender concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to be an issue?
The conveyancing practitioner is legally required to check with lender to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only notify this to your bank if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

How does conveyancing in Brighton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Brighton approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because developers in Brighton usually 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 used to new build conveyancing in Brighton or who has acted in the same development.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Brighton is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Brighton are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Brighton you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Brighton may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
