Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Church End

Is the fact that my solicitor in Church End is not on my mortgage company's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?

That is most likely an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should simply call the Church End conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

I have been told that property searches are a common reason for stalling in Church End conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Church End.

Me and my brother purchased a renovated Edwardian property in Church End. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and TSB. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Church End and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Church End is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Church End are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Church End you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Church End may determine 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.

What does commercial conveyancing in Church End cover?

By way of example, this area of conveyancing can cover the sale or purchase of freehold business premises or, more commonly, the transfer of existing leases or the drafting of new leasing arrangements. Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial loans and the termination of leases.

I have today placed an offer on a leasehold flat in Church End and the estate agent that we are dealing with recommended his conveyancer. She quoted £900 including VAT and 3rd party costs. Does this sound reasonable?

You should not rely on a single quote. One should seek like-for-like quotes for your conveyancing in Church End. Then pick one that you trust and just as important, is on the approved list of the mortgage company that you have applied for a mortgage from.
