Can you help? My Chorley and Eccleston conveyancer is assuring me that she is duty bound toorder Chorley and Eccleston conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Virgin Moneysolicitor panel. Is my conveyancer correct?
You have limited options available to you. As you are taking a home loan with a bank your conveyancing practitioner 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 follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Chorley and Eccleston conveyancing searches.

I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Aldermore. Is it usual for Aldermore to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Chorley and Eccleston is approved on their conveyancing panel? Aldermore have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Aldermore to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Our offer on a house in Chorley and Eccleston has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Chorley and Eccleston. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Clydesdale?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Chorley and Eccleston conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you must ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much dictated by the specifics of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market the majority of home buyers will apply for a home loan with Clydesdale and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their property lawyer to proceed with searches.
We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Chorley and Eccleston and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers used an online conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Chorley and Eccleston. We have lived in Chorley and Eccleston for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must 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 life insurance to cover that same illness)
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Chorley and Eccleston is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Chorley and Eccleston are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Chorley and Eccleston you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Chorley and Eccleston may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
I own a leasehold house in Chorley and Eccleston. Conveyancing and Coventry Building Society mortgage are in place. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1998. The conveyancing practitioner in Chorley and Eccleston who acted for me is not around. Any advice?
First contact the Land Registry to make sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to instruct a Chorley and Eccleston conveyancing practitioner to do this as it can be done on-line for £3. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the legitimate landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
I inherited a basement flat in Chorley and Eccleston, conveyancing was carried out in 1997. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension?

With only 79 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
