I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Camden off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with Nottingham. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have 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 Nottingham, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

At last I have had an offer on a flat in Camden agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have placed an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Camden. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Bank of Ireland started?

It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Camden conveyancing search charges, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your solicitor is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. As to the next phase this very much depends on the uniqueness of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market many purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Bank of Ireland and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their property lawyer to press on with the conveyancing in Camden.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Camden registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. Currently approximately three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration occurs after the new owner has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not usually an essential issue yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
