The Cranfield conveyancing firm handling our Cranfield conveyancing has discovered a discrepancy when comparing the assumptions in the valuation report and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My solicitor has advised that he is duty bound to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s approach legitimate?
Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
Are the Cranfield conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Kent Reliance?
Cranfield conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Kent Reliance directly.
I am considering applying for a UBS mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in Cranfield with 60% LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for UBS ?
There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but UBS will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is much more potential for delays and confusion with an additional lawyer added to the mix, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.
I am due to move home in October. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Cranfield. Conveyancing lawyer was found prior to coming across your page.
On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the selling agent but this can only be done when the sellers conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. Subsequently you should advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Cranfield or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Cranfield.
Is it the case that all Cranfield CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the UBS conveyancing panel?
Some major lenders now use the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. Nevertheless,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to join their panels.
After shopping around on the internet I have found a Cranfield lawyer having made sure that they are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Aldermore will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Aldermore 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. You may wish to consider appointing your own Cranfield surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.
