Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Cambridge Heath

I am purchasing a new build flat in Cambridge Heath. Can I do my own conveyancing?

We are getting the release of further funds on our mortgage from Skipton as we intend to carry out alterations to our property in Cambridge Heath. Do we need to appoint a nearby Cambridge Heath solicitor on the Skipton conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?

Skipton don't usually require a member of their approved list of lawyers to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Skipton panel.

I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in August 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Bank of Ireland are being a right pain. The Cambridge Heath solicitor who is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Bank of Ireland are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Bank of Ireland have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Bank of Ireland have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Bank of Ireland 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.

I am buying a new build apartment in Cambridge Heath. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Cambridge Heath

    The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.

My wife and I are acquiring a 2 bedroom flat in Cambridge Heath. When we first instructed property lawyer, they assured us that they were on all major UK lender panels. Our financial adviser contacted us today to say that they don't seem to be on the Principality approved list. If it turns out to be true, what should we do? Should we simply find a new conveyancer that is on their panel or should we pay for dual representation, with Principality selecting their own preferred solicitor.

When buying a property with mortgage finance it is conventional for the buyer’s solicitors to also represent the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a solicitor has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the conveyancer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the conveyancing practitioner has to fulfill. Some banks now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your conveyancer should call Principality and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on Principality's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Cambridge Heath solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another conveyancer into the mix.
