I was advised today by my financial adviser that my Chadderton solicitor is not on the lender Solicitor panel. What can I do to be certain that this is indeed the case?
Your first step should be to call your Chadderton conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the conveyancing panel for your lender.
Will lawyers request an advanced payment for conveyancing in Chadderton?
Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Chadderton your solicitor will ask you put them with monies to cover the search fees. Ordinarily this is requested to cover the fees of the Local Authority Search. When the deposit is as part of the total price then this will be required immediately ahead of contracts are exchanged. The closing balance that is needed will be payable a couple of days prior to the completion date.
I am looking to buy a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Chadderton who is on the Platform Home Loans Ltd solicitor. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a solicitor?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Platform Home Loans Ltd in certain locations such as Chadderton. We dont recommend any particular firm.
We are selling our property in Chadderton and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Chadderton lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a web based conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Chadderton. Having lived in Chadderton for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same illness)
I have todaybeen informed that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Chadderton for a purchase of a leasehold flat 10 months ago. How can I check that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest method to see if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Chadderton conveyancing specialists.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Chadderton before retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. My surveyor has said that some lenders will refuse to issue a loan on this type of home.
It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different requirements for example to Halifax. Should you wish to telephone us we can check via the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Chadderton. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Chadderton to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.
