Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Burnt Oak

I am not well enough to travel far from Burnt Oak. Can you please explain the reason why all Burnt Oak property lawyers aren't automatically on all mortgage company panels?

A decade ago most banks demonstrated an attitude to risk which differs from the current day. The financial regulator in 2010 instigated a thematic review into mortgage fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the lawyers on your panel. Consequently, mortgage companies have subsequently looked to extract more data from law firms concerning their operations and the individuals employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Hundreds of firms have found themselves removed from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Such firms were never going to satisfy the criteria of amount of transactions the mortgage companies insisted on.

I am about to complete buying a property in Burnt Oak but as a result of damage from some water damage at the property I have was able negotiate reparation from the current proprietors in the sum of £3k by way of a reduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process yet HSBC are not allowing this. Why were they involved?

Any lawyer that is on a HSBC approved list is required to advise HSBC of any changes to the sale price. If you were to refuse your solicitor to disclose the price change to HSBC then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, HSBC and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Burnt Oak.

Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Burnt Oak conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Barclays conveyancing panel?

Burnt Oak conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Barclays conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Barclays directly.

We wanted to use a property lawyer in Burnt Oak for our house purchase. Our broker has since advised us that our bank Alliance & Leicester won't deal with them. Surely this is unduly restrictive?

Before the recession most mortgage companies had a different appetite for risk. Almost all Burnt Oak conveyancing firms would have been on many mortgage company panels. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 carried out a thematic review into mortgage fraud which concluded: know the conveyancing solicitors dealt with. Consequently, mortgage companies are increasingly seeing more information from law firms relating to their operations and their employees and establishing certain criteria such a completing on a minimum volume of conveyancing. Many Burnt Oak conveyancing firms that have been excluded from lender panels have a 100% healthy track record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Burnt Oak is amongst the hundreds of locations where the conveyancers we list are members of the panel for Alliance & Leicester .

I am purchasing my first flat in Burnt Oak benefiting from help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it would put at risk my mortgage with Bank of Ireland. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I decided to have a survey completed on a house in Burnt Oak prior to retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor advised that some lenders will refuse to issue a loan on this type of house.

It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different requirements from Birmingham Midshires. If you e-mail us we can look into this further with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Burnt Oak. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Burnt Oak especially if they are familiar with such properties in Burnt Oak.
