My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent has warned us that the owners will only issue a contract if we appoint the agent's preferred lawyers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Bury St Edmunds
We suspect that the owner is not behind this requirement. Should the seller want ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Contact the sellers directly and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to instruct your own,trusted Bury St Edmunds conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give the estate agent a commission or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by senior management.
The solicitors handling our conveyancing in Bury St Edmunds has sent documents to review that indicate that the land is unregistered with epitome documents. Is it not the case that all houses in Bury St Edmunds are registered?
Although the vast majorities of properties in Bury St Edmunds are now registered with HMLR there are still some that remain unregistered. Any property in Bury St Edmunds that has been purchased since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the HM Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a Bury St Edmunds property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Plenty of Bury St Edmunds conveyancing lawyers will be able to handle this type of conveyancing but in the event that uncertainty prevails the usual proposition presently is for the seller to deal with the registration formalities first and subsequently sell - this no doubt cause a prolonged conveyancing.
