I am need of leasehold conveyancing for a flat in a fairly new development (seven years built) in Cippenham. Almost all the flats have already been disposed of. Is it strictly necessary to order conveyancing searches as part of conveyancing in Cippenham?
A big part of the Cippenham conveyancing process is the conveyancing searches. There are hundreds companies delivering Cippenham conveyancing searches, as well direct from the local authority. These are known collectively as personal search providers and they produce, not surprisingly, personal searches. However, all Local Authority Search conveyancing products have one thing in common - they must secure their information from the local authority.
The Cippenham conveyancing solicitors that I recently instructed on my house acquisition in Cippenham have suddenly closed. They were on acting for me because I needed a solicitor on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and my preferred Cippenham lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take one hundred and fifty pounds for searches. What are my options?
If you have an estate agent involved then inform them immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to help.
