Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bude

We have very brash sellers who has recommended a preliminary agreement with a deposit of 5k. Are such agreements sensible?

This type of arrangement is not the norm in Bude, conveyancers are often inclined to veer clients away from them as they detract from the primary focus, namely conveyancing and if you end up losing your deposit then the lawyer at best left with an upset client and at worst a litigious one. In addition, there is no assurance that just because the vendor has signed a lock out agreement they will complete the sale with you. They may be in contravention of the contract if they receive a big enough offer to do so because an aggrieved buyer with the benefit of a lockoutcontract will still be obliged show losses as a consequence of the breach and this may not compare to the extra amount that the owner may gain by breaching the contract, no matter how morally condemnable it undoubtedly is.

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

When it comes to lenders such as Lloyds, do Bude conveyancing practitioners incur an annual charge to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Lloyds are being a right pain. The Bude solicitor who is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Lloyds are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Lloyds have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Lloyds have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Lloyds may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
