Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Copse Hill

AssumingI were to buy a simple residential homein Copse Hill mortgage fee and dispense with a survey and no local authority searches how much should I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Copse Hill?

Any savings you would achieve would be isolated to the costs for searches. Your property lawyer still got to do everything else - money laundering, communicating with the sellers property lawyer, SDLT return, register the ownership etc. You might save a bit for them not having to register a charge however it won't be meaningful.

We are buying a house and require a conveyancing solicitor in Copse Hill who is on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Bank of Ireland . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Copse Hill.

Various web forums that I have frequented warn that are the main reason for delay in Copse Hill house deals. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released conclusions of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the most frequent causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Copse Hill.

Just acquired a terraced house in Copse Hill , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Copse Hill conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be sure that my purchase is recorded.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Copse Hill registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. Currently approximately 80% of submission are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the new owner has moved in to the property so post completion formalities is not typically top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Copse Hill prior to appointing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend not grant a mortgage on a flying freehold property.

It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different requirements for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you call us we can check via the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Copse Hill. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Copse Hill to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

I'm purchasing a house in Copse Hill. I can find my conveyancer's company on the Law Society's list, but I can't find my lawyer's name as listed on the regulator's website. Should I be concerned?

Not every individual in the company must be listed by the regulator. As long there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the conveyancing, the actual day-to-day activity can be conducted by unqualified staff.
