We instructed a Cheshire based lawyer for our conveyancing in Cheshire recently. Upon checking the fine print I seeI am on the hook for costs even if the dealdoes not go ahead. Should I go with them or use an internet lawyer advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Cheshire?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be higher to neutralise the conveyances that do not proceed. Do bear in mind that such promotions rarely protect you from expenditure by way of example Cheshire conveyancing search expenses.
I sincerely hope you can assist me. My Cheshire conveyancer is advising me that she is duty bound toorder Cheshire conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the Santanderapproved lawyer panel. These Cheshire searches cost a lot of money can this be avoided?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a bank your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Cheshire conveyancing searches.
My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Cheshire. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?
Given that you have now to all intents and purposes signed on the dotted line you must choose a conveyancing solicitor as a matter of urgency as you are facing a pending deadline in which to complete the property. Every auction property will ordinarily have an associated legal set of papers. This should include most,if not all of the documents that your lawyer requires. In the case of leasehold property the auction pack should contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork specific to leasehold premises. You need to give this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. Do make sure that that you have the requisite funding organised to complete on the date specified in the contract.
I am aiming to move property in August. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Cheshire. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you can collect the keys from the property agent however this should only be done when the vendors lawyers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. After that you can tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Cheshire or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Cheshire.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Cheshire. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Principality be concerned?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Principality your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions contained in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Principality. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Principality where a lease does not satisfy these requirements. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not restricted to Cheshire.
I am purchasing a new build house in Cheshire with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not disclose to my conveyancer about this deal as it will adversely affect my mortgage with HSBC Bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

They would have to be very poor in order to consider replacing them. Has your mortgage offer been generated? In the event that it has you need to advise them of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are re-sent.
