I am in a contract race with another buyer for a property in Chesham. What can be done to speed up the buying process?
In a situation where you are under time constraints to exchange it is highly recommended that your solicitor is familiar with the area as they will make use of local relationships and knowledge. It is possible that they may have transacted otherproperties in the same neighbourhood. Therefore consider using a Chesham conveyancing lawyer. Second, double check that the lawyer is on the on the approved list for your mortgage company. It is estimated that just under twenty per cent of Chesham conveyancing deals are delayed or jeopardised after finding out that a buyer’s lawyer was not on their banks list of approved solicitors. This can often result in the conveyancing being frustrated by almost 21 days. It is claimed that this issue impacts approximately 100,000 home moves every year. Almost all Chesham conveyancing practices can not represent certain banks so do check at the outset.

A selection of banks and building societies now use the accreditation scheme as the starting point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Chesham. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender UBS be concerned?
Given that your lender is UBS your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The CML Handbook contains minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to UBS where a lease does not meet these provisions. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not isolated to Chesham.
To what extent are Chesham conveyancing solicitors duty bound by the Law Society to issue transparent conveyancing figures?
Contained within the Solicitors Code of Conduct are prescriptive rules and regulations as to how the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) allow solicitors to publicise their charges to clients.The Law Society have practice note giving advice on how to publicise transparent charges to avoid breaching any such rule. Practice notes are not legal advice issued by the Law Society and is not intended as the only standard of good practice a conveyancing solicitor should adhere to. The Practice Note does, however, constitute the Law Society’s view of acceptable practice for publicising conveyancing charges, and accordingly it’s a recommended read for any solicitor or conveyancer in Chesham or further afield.
