I plan on purchasing a ground floor flat in Clowne. My Conveyancer has never been on on the mortgage company approved panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my Clowne conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the mortgage company panel?
You have a couple of options available to you here
- Complete the purchase with your existing Clowne property lawyer but your lender will need to appoint a solicitor on their conveyancing panel. The net result is additional charges and potential interruption.
- Appoint a fresh lawyer to conduct the conveyancing, ensuring that they are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel.
- Convince your property lawyer to seek to join the mortgage company panel
When does exchange of contracts take place for residential conveyancing in Clowne and do I need to attend the lawyers branch?
Where you are round the corner to our conveyancing solicitors in Clowne you are welcome to come in to sign the paperwork. That being said, the firms we recommend offer a countrywide conveyancing service and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the property agreement is not the important part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the firm to address the formalities at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Clowne)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Clowne I like with open areas and station nearby, however it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Clowne in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
I am buying a garden flat in Clowne. Conveyancing lawyer has been waiting for, from the seller, building insurance schedule. I was told today I was informed that the owner needs to send the insurance schedule for the flat above as well. Why would my lawyer need to check the insurance for the flat above? Is it really required? We have been in hold for the last month…
It is not impossible in leasehold conveyancing in Clowne to discover Conveyancing in Clowne in a minority of cases reveals that the lease requires the leasehold owners to insure their individual flats as opposed to the landlord insuring the complete block - which is definitely better. Do check with your solicitor but it would appear that your lawyer is looking to establish that the complete building is insured. Insuring your flat is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the other flat cannot be reconstructed due to lack of insurance cover.
