We are due to move home in October. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Burwash. Conveyancing solicitor was found before I stumbled across this website.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your property agent but this can only take place once the sellers solicitors advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be collected. You will need to tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. We do not recommend a specific removal company but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Burwash or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Burwash.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Burwash off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with HSBC. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with HSBC, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the HSBC conveyancing panel.
Me and my brother purchased a terraced Edwardian house in Burwash. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Chelsea Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Burwash and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.
