Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Carmel

It is a dozen years since I acquired my house in Carmel. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I can't locate the title deeds. Is this a major issue?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be retained by your lender or they could stored with the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Carmel relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it is more problematic but is resolvable.

We previously selected conveyancing lawyers located in Carmel on the RBS solicitor panel. They have just billed me a further sum for dealing with the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by RBS?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your solicitor can levy a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by RBS but by your Carmel conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the RBS panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Carmel. I have a mortgage agreed with Coventry BS. 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 Coventry BS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Nationwide are being problematic. The Carmel solicitor who is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Nationwide are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Nationwide have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Nationwide have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Nationwide 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 have been told that property searches are the main cause of stalling in Carmel conveyancing transactions. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released determinations of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the top 10 causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Carmel.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Carmel. Conveyancing is daunting 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.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Carmel

    Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?
