Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Coombe Dingle

I am buying an apartment in Coombe Dingle. My property lawyer is not on the lender approved list. Can I still continue with my Coombe Dingle conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the bank panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?

You must instruct a conveyancer to complete the formalities when you take out a loan to purchase your property. They will carry out all the necessary due diligence on the property, ensuring that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is dealt with. You may select a Coombe Dingle conveyancer of your choosing. However, where the lawyer appointed is not on the mortgage company approved list further charges will be levied as separate legal representation will be need by the bank. Lender panel applications can be submitted, so provided your lawyer has not in the past applied for membership they should take the chance to apply.

Some advice if I may. My Coombe Dingle lawyer is advising me that she is duty bound toorder Coombe Dingle conveyancing searches stemming from the fact thatthe firm are on the Lloydssolicitor panel. Do I not have a choice here?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a mortgage with a lender 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 bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Coombe Dingle conveyancing searches.

Do I need to visit the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Coombe Dingle so that I can attend their offices when needed.

As opposed to 12 years ago, almost all banks no longer oblige their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the mortgagors signature. You will still be obliged to provide identification documents and there are still manifest advantages to choosing a local ayer, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Coombe Dingle.

Various online forums that I have visited warn that are the number one cause of hinderance in Coombe Dingle conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released conclusions of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the common causes of hindrances in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Coombe Dingle.

Should I use a Coombe Dingle conveyancing practitioner based in the location that I am hoping to buy? An old friend can perform the conveyancing however his firm is located a couple of hundredmiles drive away.

The benefit of a high street Coombe Dingle conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to execute paperwork, deliver your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local insight which is a plus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If if people you trust used your friend and the majority were impressed that should outweigh using an unknown Coombe Dingle conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being round the corner.

I've recently bought a leasehold flat in Coombe Dingle. Am I liable to pay service charges for periods before completion of my purchase?

Where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

I purchased a garden flat in Coombe Dingle, conveyancing was carried out October 1996. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Coombe Dingle with an extended lease are worth £255,000. The ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease terminates on 21st October 2098

With just 73 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
