Please help. My Burnage solicitor is advising me that she is duty bound toapply for Burnage conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the HSBCsolicitor panel. Is this really necessary?
You have limited options available to you. As you are taking a mortgage with a lender your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the UK Finance Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Burnage conveyancing searches.

How does conveyancing in Burnage differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Burnage approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Burnage tend to buy 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 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 Burnage or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently bought a leasehold house in Burnage. Do I have any liability for service charges for periods before completion of my purchase?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
