Having been told to check out your site we were going to use a conveyancing solicitor in Charlton endorsed by you but stumbled across some other estimates via the web appear less expensive – why is this?
One can find lots of solicitors marketing what appear to be cut price. You should think twice about how important this transaction is to you that you are willing to be penny wise pound foolish over the quality of the legal work. Some hide extras well inside the terms and conditions. The law firms that we list for conveyancing in Charlton neverbehave this way.
There is lots of here concerning conveyancing in Charlton but what is your top tip for finding the right conveyancer in Charlton
Do not opt for the cheapest Charlton conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
We were going to get a OIP from Nationwide this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Nationwide recommend any Charlton solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Charlton solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nationwide through the process.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Santander are being a right pain. The Charlton solicitor who is on the Santander conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Santander are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Santander have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Santander have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Santander 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.
