Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Countesthorpe

There are a variety of conveyancing solicitors in Countesthorpe but how do I know who I should use?

We would encourage you not to base your choice on the lowest Countesthorpe conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

I have instructed a Countesthorpe conveyancing practitioner having made sure that they are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Lloyds will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Lloyds will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your property lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Countesthorpe postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Lloyds, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Countesthorpe.

Aldermore have agreed my home loan in principle, my bid on a house in Countesthorpe has been accepted, now what?

Your property agent will wish to be informed of your conveyancer's details (ensure that the conveyancers are on the lender’s approved list). Contact Aldermore or the broker and complete any relevant paperwork. Aldermore will sellect a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or seller to schedule a slot for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. Aldermore will send the offer to you and your property lawyers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Countesthorpe.

I'm buying a new build house in Countesthorpe with a mortgage from HSBC Bank. The builders would not budge the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The house builders rep advised me not inform my conveyancer about the side-deal as it would impact my mortgage with HSBC Bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent advised that the vendor will only issue a contract if we appoint the agent's chosen solicitors as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Countesthorpe

We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to instruct your own,trusted Countesthorpe conveyancing firm - rather thanthose that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing targets set by head office.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Countesthorpe. Before I get started I would like to find out the remaining lease term.

If the lease is registered - and most are in Countesthorpe - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I inherited a 1st floor flat in Countesthorpe, conveyancing formalities finalised in 1997. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Similar flats in Countesthorpe with a long lease are worth £191,000. The ground rent is £55 invoiced annually. The lease runs out on 21st October 2079

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
