I am nearing an exchange on a property in Cheetham and my mum and dad have sent the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now informed that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my property lawyer needs to disclose this to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the lender concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
The conveyancing practitioner is duty bound to check with lender to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only report this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
My property lawyer in Cheetham is not listed on the The Mortgage Works Approved Panel. Is it possible for me to use my family solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the The Mortgage Works approved list?
The limited options open to you here include:
- Carry on with your preferred Cheetham lawyers but The Mortgage Works will need to instruct a solicitor on their list of acceptable firms. This will inevitably rack up the overall conveyancing fees and result in delays.
- Get an alternative solicitor to act in the purchase, not forgetting to check they are on the The Mortgage Works panel
I have todayfound out that Action Conveyancing have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Cheetham for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest method to check if the property is registered to you, 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 Cheetham conveyancing specialists.
I'm refinancing my current house to a buy to let loan with Nottingham Building Society and I will use the ballance of the raised equity as a deposit on further house. The area we are looking at is Cheetham. Will your lawyers be able to act for the two lenders and tie in the conveyances?
Make use of our comparison tool on this page to ensure that the conveyancers are on the appropriate lender panels. On the basis that they are your lawyer will be able to simultaneously deal with the two conveyancing matters but you should talk with you conveyancer and make apparent your expectations and needs.
When it comes to my conveyancing in Cheetham should I be charged VAT on the following: (1) Land reg fee on purchase (2) Pre - completion search fee (3) SDLT E submission on purchase (4) Bank TT fee
(1) Land reg fee on purchase - No (2) Pre - completion search fees -No, (such conveyancing searches are HMLR ones and means £4 and possibly £2 bankruptcy per name on your mortgage) (3) SDLT E submission on your purchase - There is no VAT on Stamp Duty. However if the firm is charging a stamp duty e-submission fee as part of their services - some Cheetham conveyancers do - that will incur VAT(4) Bank transfer fee - Yes it is for the property lawyer's time in submitting the funds this way.
