I have todaydiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Cullompton for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 10 months ago. How can I check that my home is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest way to see if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Cullompton conveyancing specialists.

How does conveyancing in Cullompton differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Cullompton contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because house builders in Cullompton typically buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Cullompton or who has acted in the same development.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Cullompton I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Cullompton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

We are planning to purchase a four room apartmentin Cullompton with a residential mortgage from a lender. We like our lawyer in Cullompton yet our mortgage company says he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the our mortgage company panel solicitors or stay with our Cullompton solicitor and incur the extra fees for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that our lender use our Cullompton lawyer?

No, not really. The bank mortgage issued is subject to conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the bank's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels, including almost all conveyancing solicitors in Cullompton : a mortgagee could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
