Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Cannington

I can't travel far from Cannington. Is there a reason why all Cannington conveyancing practitioners aren't automatically on all bank panels?

A decade ago most banks had an approach 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 conveyancers on your panel. As a result, lenders have since soughtmore information from law firms regarding their operations and the individuals employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum amount of transactions. Thousands of law practices have found themselves excluded from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy disciplinary record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to meet the minimum amount of transactions the lenders set.

We see that you have a post code search directory listing solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a referral fee if I retain them for our own conveyancing in Cannington?

Expecting to exchange soon on a garden flat in Cannington. Conveyancing solicitors have said that they will have a report out to me on Monday. What should I be looking out for?

I acquired a split level flat in Cannington, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2009. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent properties in Cannington with an extended lease are worth £180,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 per annum. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2084

With just 58 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £22,800 and £26,400 as well as professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
